This paper presents optimization models for electric Mobility-as-a-Service systems, whereby electric vehicles not only provide on-demand mobility, but also perform charging and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operations to enhance the fleet operator profitability.

Our results show that it is possible to reach an operation that is on average fully fair at the cost of a slight travel time increase compared to a minimum-travel-time solution.

Our results indicate that jointly optimizing the charging infrastructure placement allows to decrease overall energy consumption of the fleet and vehicle hours traveled by approximately 1% compared to an heuristic placement.

The resulting problem structure remains identical to a standard network flow model, a linear problem, which can be solved in polynomial time for a given ride-pooling request assignment.

This paper presents a modeling and optimization framework to study congestion-aware ride-pooling Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand (AMoD) systems, whereby self-driving robotaxis are providing on-demand mobility, and users headed in the same direction share the same vehicle for part of their journey.

To this end, this paper presents a framework to jointly optimize the fleet design in terms of battery capacity and number of vehicles, and the operational strategies of the E-AMoD system, with the aim of maximizing the operator's total profit.
