1. introduction
e need for means of transportation for the develop-
ment of our occupations has been present throughout
the history of the human race. According to the latest
Ecuadorian Energy Balance of 2017, the transport sector
represented 52.29% (45,098 kBEP; 73,427.76 GWh) of
the total national energy consumption [1].
Looking for mechanisms that provide exibility in the
consumption of sources that come from fossil energy, thus
facilitating the migration to other primary energy sour

tivities but with a minimum environmental impact and
reduced polluting emissions to the planet [2].

mand where electric mobility systems are representative,

Optimal georeferenced deployment of charging stations for electric vehicles in distribution networks using
a trajectory-based heuristic model
the engineering level but also in the regulatory framework
that allow the technological transition without producing
disadvantages in the operation of the electric power su-
pply systems [3].
As electric vehicles increase their market share, its
going to get some attention from power companies. Its
inclusion in power systems represents a large increase in
load demand, causing many problems of power quality
degradation, increased energy losses. However, a problem
may occur between the network operators and the owners
of the charging stations since it may be the case that the-
re are dierences because the owners of the charging sta-
tions look for the commercial place where they can charge
the electric vehicles, but at lower cost. On the other hand,
the electricity network operators estimate that the char-
ging stations are located in such a way that they allow a
predetermined number of vehicles to be fed, impacting
the electricity network as little as possible [4].
Various solution methods worldwide have been pro-
posed to locate charging stations. For example, genetic
algorithms and voronoi diagrams have been incorpora-
ted. ese algorithms do not consider very important fac-
tors such as: load prole, consumption, autonomy, and
geographical considerations. at is why we start, for the
optimization process, from candidate sites which can be
conventional service stations, bus stops, shopping cen-
ters, parking lots, parks, etc. Consequently, the proposed
model does not start from scenarios where candidate si-
tes are considered, as would happen with voronoi when
segmenting the area of analysis but starts from a study
area. at is, he knows the study area based on its carto-
graphic reality [5].
Regarding the prole of charge and consumption of
Electric Vehicles (), the historical information of the re-
cords of electric taxis that operate in the city of Loja was
considered, as well as a model developed by the authors
that takes into account the process of charging of EV ba-
tteries modied in a novel model that represents the elec-
tric vehicle battery charging system based on its state of
charge and its current variability and charging time.
e general problem lies in optimally locating and si-
zing the charging stations along a georeferenced distribu-
tion network of 34 nodes, so that the proposed heuristic
starts from candidate sites in the network, of which they
can be public places, that is, it is an iterative method that
knows the study area since this information is extracted
from Open Street Maps (), as well as the use of -
 soware to implement graph theory that will allow
nding the nodes and topology that is part of the solution
set. To later evaluate the voltage proles and load losses
simulated in Cymdyst [6].

2.1. ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES
e prerequisite for the planning of charging stations is
to create the conditions for an adequate consumption
of electrical energy. On the other hand, electric vehicles
have zero emission characteristics; Low engine noise and
higher propulsion eciency [7], [8], [9], [10], [11].
From the point of view of transport systems, whether
public or conventional, a huge proportion of energy con-
sumption is due to the inecient movement of trac. e
exible energy consumption estimation model is based on
the evaluation of consumption based on data from other
vehicles on the road network, which have the possibility
of being accurate thanks to the dierent vehicle models
and energy eciency [12], [13].
e cost for energy consumption per 100 km of an
electric transport is up to three times less than the cost
of a conventional vehicle that uses fossil fuel, this taking
into account that in Ecuador there are lower rates, both
for gasoline and electricity [14].
When analyzing the real cost of electricity in the
country and the international price of gasoline, the EV is
still lower than that of a thermal combustion vehicle, the-
refore, the electric vehicle is more protable and ecient
even with the fuel subsidy that exists in the country. is
advantage is also visible in Europe [14].
2.2. ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION NETWORK IN ELEC
TRIC VEHICLES
Within the exponential growth of EVs in moderate
portions, it should not cause too many inconveniences,
however, its wide adoption will probably create an im-
pact on the operation and management of electrical dis-
tribution networks, such as congestion, voltage problems
and load imbalances between phases [15].
Depending on the autonomy of the Electric Vehicle,
the excessive charge of the batteries of said cars will have
an impact on the distribution system, which would in-
crease the load demand, introducing disturbances in the
Interconnected Electric System, which imposes an in-
crease in the generation and make probable reinforce-
ments with the penetration of renewable energy in order
to maintain the balance between what is generated and
consumed [16] (see Table 1).
Approximately, the battery charging speed depends on
the output of the charging station and the technical speci-
cations of the electric car. e peak daily load curve during
a day in the worst case would have a higher consumption

in the midday and aernoon hours, and a lower consump-
tion in the early morning [17] (see Figure 1).
To guarantee the continuity of the electricity supply and
stabilize the demand curve, which in fact changes accor-
ding to the time and type of daily charge of an electric
vehicle, strategies and procedures are considered where it
does not aect the electrical system and carry out a mas-
sive integration of electric vehicles in a planned way [18].
2.3. MOST REPRESENTATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF
THE FLEET SYSTEM TO DETERMINE CONSUMPTION
To carry out the cost comparison, the most used com-
bustion vehicle in Ecuador was taken into account, the
model is the Chevy Aveo, and the Nissan Leaf model as
an electric vehicle, for which the initial cost of the elec-
tric vehicle vs. the combustion vehicle, the electric vehicle
has an increase in cost with 85% compared to the cost of
the conventional vehicle.
e costs for energy consumption were determined
based on the technical specications provided by the ma-
nufacturer of the electric vehicle. Several brands and mo-
dels of electric vehicles are expected to soon circulate on
the roads of Ecuador.
It is established that vehicle users generally log less
than 50 km per day, with a performance index for elec-
tric vehicles of 8 km/kWh (0.122 kWh/km) under ideal
conditions of trac and geography, it is concluded that
the energy demanded by the EV of the network would be
0.144 kWh for each kilometer traveled.
2.4. ALGORITHM
e algorithm will be responsible for determining the
optimal location of charging stations by extracting the
characteristics of electric vehicles, through the network
of 34 georeferenced nodes. is route may be useful for
the study of any real scenario of an electrical system de-
pending on the demand scenarios determined by Cymd-
yst (see Table 3).
Consequently, in [33] the heuristic model is explai-
ned in a standard way to solve the programming problem

Model of charging stations. Electric vehicles in distribution networks
To determine the characteristics of the vehicle eet, a
comparison was made of both the conventional and elec-
tric vehicles, taking into account the route, autonomy
and consumption. For this, the costs of various models
of electric vehicles that are used in the United States wi-
thout taxes and without subsidies are shown, but these
low-end vehicles have already been inserted in Ecuador
(see Table 2).

Optimal georeferenced deployment of charging stations for electric vehicles in distribution networks using
a trajectory-based heuristic model
for which the kmeans algorithm will be used to generate
cluster, through the distribution network model of 34 no-
des generated in Cymdyst will be distributed in scenario
where you will get the power, voltage and consumption
at which the charging stations act taking into considera-
tion, public places [19].
3. Results and discussion
Once the model to be used is proposed, a result will be
obtained, which is developed in two scenarios that are
based on a base case study where it will be the starting
point to analyze the dierent behaviors of the network
when the charging stations come into operation. and the
impact on the elements to future case studies of load to
the distribution network.
3.1. ANALYSIS OF OPTIMAL LOCATION OF CHAR
GING STATIONS IN THE DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
One of the objectives of this article is to nd the opti-
mal location for charging stations, to evaluate in a geo-
referenced distribution network taking into account the
characteristics of electric vehicles, inserted in Ecuador
both in their consumption and autonomy compared to
conventional vehicles. based on satisfying user demand.
In the rst instance, it is necessary to extract the coordi-
nates of the area to be studied, through the Open Street
Maps that helps the georeferencing of the scenario, the-
refore the longitude and latitude given below were obtai-
ned as data (see Table 4).
Next, the results obtained from the optimization are
presented to nd the strategic points of charging stations
for the correct functioning of the network, since strate-
gic points of access to the public in the georeferenced ne-
twork were taken into account, such as parks, centres
