Zap-ZERO: Zero Carbon Routing Service for EV Fleets

**电动汽车零碳出行服务**提供创新的电动汽车出行服务。这一创新将使车队管理者和电动汽车司机能够规划零碳/低碳强度路线，并预测、跟踪和记录与每次旅程和电动汽车充电事件相关的碳排放。项目创新和开发的一个关键部分将是应用机器学习来改进当前zap平台在高动态数据环境中的路由算法。目前，由于所有报告都是根据英国电网碳强度和每英里电动汽车能耗的平均水平计算的，因此没有市场解决方案可以测量与每次充电事件和车辆移动相关的碳排放量。Zap-ZERO项目的核心创新是进一步扩展Advanced Infrastructure Technology开发的技术，通过提高空间分辨率来涵盖所有电动汽车充电点。AIT的平台将为Zap-Map路线引擎提供独特的数据输入，为车队经理/司机提供额外的路线选择；即零碳或低碳强度路线。根据现行法规，大中型企业车队已经必须使用经SECR批准的基于既定温室气体议定书的方法报告其碳排放量。然而，这些估计在地方和国家排放系数之间的误差高达30%。除了为日常车辆运行提供运营路线解决方案外，Zap-ZERO还记录每次行程的所有碳排放（存储在旅程数据记录中），车队经理可以使用该记录进行年度报告（使用基于市场和位置的排放）。该项目提高了现有电动汽车充电基础设施的可视性，并根据车队经理/司机的要求自动规划路线，这些要求可以从以下几个方面进行选择：(i)最可靠，（ii）成本最低，（iii）时间最短，（iv）碳排放最少。在所有情况下，路由都可以在桌面或应用程序上规划，所有的路线都可以通过应用程序或使用CarPlay和Android Auto车辆平台的仪表盘访问。所有的路由都是完全动态的，并实时更新，以响应充电点可用性状态的变化。

The **Zap-ZERO Carbon Routing Service for EV Fleets** offers an innovative electric vehicle (EV) fleet routing service. This innovation will enable fleet managers and EV drivers to plan zero/low carbon intensity routes, and forecast, track, and record the carbon emission associated with every journey and EV charging event. A key part of the project innovation and development will be the application of machine learning to improve the current Zap-platform's routing algorithms in what is a high dynamic data environment.Currently, no market solution exists for measuring the carbon emissions associated with every charging event and vehicle movement as all reporting is calculated using UK-averages for carbon intensity of the grid and EV energy use per mile. The core innovation of the Zap-ZERO project is to further extend the techniques developed by Advanced Infrastructure Technology by increasing the spatial resolution to include all EV charging locations. AIT's platform will provide unique data inputs to the Zap-Map routing engine to give fleet managers/drivers the additional routing option; namely zero- or lowest-carbon intensity routes.Under existing regulations, large and medium sized corporate fleets already have to report their carbon emissions using SECR approved methodologies based on established GHG Protocols. However these estimates are known to be incorrect by up to 30% between local and national emissions factors. In addition to providing operational routing solutions for daily vehicle movements, Zap-ZERO records all carbon emissions for every journey (stored in a Journey Data Record) which is available to fleet managers for annual reporting (using market and location based emissions).The project improves the visibility of available EV charging infrastructure and automates the planning of routes according to a fleet manager/driver's requirements which can be selected from: (i) most reliable, (ii) lowest cost, (iii) least time, and (iv) least carbon. In all cases routing can be planned on desktop or app and all routes accessed via app or in-dash using CarPlay and Android Auto vehicle platforms. All routing is fully dynamic and updated in real time in response to changes in availability status of charge points.
