Abstract
As the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) continues to rise in Jordan, particularly in the city of Irbid, a pressing issue has emerged the scarcity of Car Fast Chargers (DC) within gas stations. This challenge not only inconveniences electric car owners, but also contributes to extended waiting times at the limited available charging stations. In response to this issue, a collaborative initiative has been undertaken in partnership with a local company in Irbid, aiming to address the current shortcomings in the electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Optimization models are developed to determine where are the best gas stations to put the charging unit, and the best number of charging units in each station.
