| dc.description.abstract | As the global population and economic power are mounting, the users of automobiles and motorbikes have been on the rise in recent years, too. This trend not only leads traffic congestion in urban areas, but also causes corruption and huge energy consumption. Given Taiwan’s relatively small territory and the absence of natural resources, how to enhance en-ergy utility and how to trim the excessive emission of exhaust have become the vital issues awaiting governmental attention. In recent decades, the authority has emphasized on man-agement of self-owned vehicles. Especially, boosting the policies and strategies of electronic motorbikes. This dissertation mainly focuses on property is electronic motorbikes “Gogoro”. The company fledgling electric motorbike manufacturer is the forerunner of “Smartscooter”. Attention on the company’s signature recharging strategy, battery exchange strategy. Com-bining the low-carbon land project conducted in Penghu to build the basis of simulation.
Under the premise of achieving low carbon emissions and encouraging green travel in Penghu, this study takes into account Gogoro users’ need for regular recharging demand with the battery exchange station establishing constrain, and attempts to arrive at an accu-rate estimate of spare batteries to meet the expectation regarding efficient service level. We hope that this dissertation will serve as a useful reference for policy makers when it comes to installing future recharging stations. In this study, we discuss that the number of spare bat-teries can provide how many service level of battery exchange station. First, we use British bike share system’s customer arrival rate to create demand and build the simulation system. Customer routes and site locations are both known. With these assumption, we discuss how many spare batteries should be placed at each location and what kind of service level can be provided. The statistical analysis shows increasing the number of spare batteries can reduce a customer’s average waiting time and their total time in the system. This system identifies the important recharging station as the main target improvement. After revising the system’s parameter, the recharging station can have the better performance when customers try to re-place the battery.
We also hope that the results of this study will provide useful information for local re-lated industries, academic institutions, and other electronic motorbike manufacturers. | en_US |
