ABSTRACT
Based on the analysis of the demand of a region and based on the queuing theory, this paper establishes a model to determine the optimal number of charging stations in a region. The purpose is to meet the charging requirements of users without generating waste, so as to maximize the economic and social benefits. This paper selects the data of the US Tesla company and the relevant parameter of the Tesla’s charging stations as a reference. Because the United States has a vast territory and people there have a high willingness to drive a car. What’s more, the popularity of electric vehicles is relatively high. At the same time, Tesla‘s products are relatively complete in supporting facilities, which takes a certain reference role in the development of China's future all-electric vehicles.
