Dataset Description


This dataset contains all the data, instances and solutions used, summarised and reported in the paper "The impact of energy estimation inaccuracy on the optimality of electric vehicle routing decisions", Raeesi, R. and Laporte, G., submitted for review to the "Transportation Research Part B: Methodological". 

- The node IDs and the coordinates of all the 50 randomly generated locations in Greater London are available in the file "50NodesLocation.xlsx".

- The extracted gpx files of all the 2450 fastest paths identified between every pair of nodes is available in the folder "ExtractedRoutes_gpx".

- The constructed EVRPTW instances of all 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 nodes are available in the folder "TestInstances".

- The details of energy estimation by all the nine methods over all the 2450 paths is available in the file "EnergyEstimationResults_Paths.xlsx".

- The details of the solutions to all 540 EVRPTW test instances with different energy estimation models and different objective functions is presented in different sheets in the file "EVRPTWResults.xlsx".

- The Pareto-optimal solutions to the considered instances in the cases of the 50 kwh and 75 kwh battery capacity are available in the folder "Pareto_Optimal_Results". 


The files are best to be viewed in a WordPad.
