ID 233 Optimization of Network Design for Charging Station
Proceedings of the 5th NA International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Detroit, Michigan, USA, August 10 - 14, 2020 Optimization of Network Design for Charging Station Placement : A Case Study Silvi Istiqomah, Wahyudi Sutopo Master Program of Industrial Engineering Department Universitas Sebelas Maret Surakarta, Indonesia [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The use of electric vehicles (EV) is quite a lot. With so many EVs scattered, it is necessary to plan the placement of a filling station that takes into account all the components of tractive effort, regenerative braking, and parasitic power users. Actual driving distance and altitude data from Google Maps are used as data for placement of filling stations and can therefore far more accurately predict the range that can be achieved from a given EV than a typical Euclidean distance model. In addition, the optimization model for filling station placement considers the number of affordable households in the filling station procurement plan. One problem in this study is the importance of meeting the increasing demand for EV fuels. Considerations for adjusting existing EV levels. The proposed optimization technique is applied to the transportation network, and in the case study in the Solo area, where the focus is to reach the maximum range with the minimum number of filling station distances. The results are promising and show that flexibility, smart route selection, and numerical efficiency of the proposed design techniques, can choose strategic locations to fill stations from thousands of possible locations without numerical difficulties. Keywords Optimization, Charging station, Placement 1. Introduction With the development of EV, the planning of electric vehicle charging stations (EV) has become an important concern of distribution network planning. -
Sale of Adulterated Or Export Bound Motor Fuels in the Local Market
SALE OF ADULTERATED OR EXPORT BOUND MOTOR FUELS IN THE LOCAL MARKET The Energy Regulatory Commission is mandated under Section 95 of the Energy Act No. 12 of 2006 to monitor petroleum products offered for sale in the local market with the aim of preventing motor fuel adulteration or dumping of export bound fuels. In this regard, the Commission undertakes a program of continuous monitoring of the quality of petroleum motor fuels on sale, transport and storage throughout the country. During the period July 2018 - September 2018, 4,456 tests were conducted at 675 petroleum sites (including illegal petroleum sites). From the tests, 637 sites were compliant which represents a 94.4% compliance level. However, tests from 38 sites turned out to be non-compliant. Pursuant to Regulation 15 of the Energy (Retail Facility Construction and Licensing) Regulations 2013, the non-compliant stations and their particular offences are listed hereunder: Test Date Name of Station County Physical Location Nature of non-compliance Status as at 1st July to 27th September 2018 Station reopened after upgrading the product and paying 1 10.07.2018 Texas Energy Service Station – Awendo Migori Awendo Offering for sale Diesel contaminated with Kerosene. penalties amounting to KShs 500,000 2 12.07.2018 Mwito Filling Station Meru Kangeta Offering for sale Diesel contaminated with Kerosene.

WiTricity simplicity and efficiency. The most important distinctive idea is spear-headed by MIT researcher Marin Soljacic, which structural difference between contactless transformers and describes the ability to provide electricity to remote objects without wires. The advent of WiTricity technology is though old conventional transformers is that the two ‘coils’ in the former of 1899, explored by Nikola Tesla, but has founded its grip in are separated by a large air gap. Compared with plug and recent years with numerous gadgets and there snaking cables socket (i.e., conductive) charging, the primary advantage of around us. The technology is in turn expels E-waste and will free the inductive charging approach is that the system can work us from the power cords. WiTricity depends upon strong coupled with no exposed conductors, no interlocks and no connectors, resonance between transmitter and receiver coils. -

Landmark Designation Report
CITY OF HOUSTON Archaeological & Historical Commission _____ Planning and Development Department LANDMARK DESIGNATION REPORT LANDMARK NAME: Gulf Oil Filling Station AGENDA ITEM: C.2 OWNERS: Brookhollow Venture LTD HPO FILE NO.: 15L307 APPLICANT: Stephen Harrison DATE ACCEPTED: Apr-01-2015 LOCATION: 3709 La Branch Street HAHC HEARING DATE: Apr-23-2015 SITE INFORMATION Lots 5 & 6, Block 3, Empire, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas. The site includes a 294 square foot one story commercial building, formerly a gas station. TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Landmark Designation HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Gulf Oil Filling Station at 3709 La Branch Street was constructed circa 1926 at a time when the automobile was becoming dominant in American cities. Built for the Gulf Oil Corporation, it is an excellent high-style example of early twentieth century neighborhood filling stations, and is representative of the transition in Gulf filling stations from the residentially-oriented Craftsman house with canopy form of 1910-1930 to the more streamlined, Art Deco influenced oblong box with canopy of the 1930s and 1940s. For half of a century, the La Branch station served the community of the Third Ward, but in the 1970s it fell into disrepair, as the neighborhood filling station was eclipsed by full-service gas station convenience stores located on major thoroughfares and highways. More recently, the structure has enjoyed a new lease on life as an ever-changing canvas for public art. Even in its vacancy the Gulf Filling Station has remained a neighborhood fixture and hub of activity. The building is currently undergoing rehabilitation for a new commercial use. -

Exemptions and Refunds Related to Sales and Uses of Kerosene
Technical Memorandum TSB-M-11(12)M, (18)S Petroleum Taxes Sales Tax October 6, 2011 Exemptions and Refunds Related to Sales and Uses of Kerosene This TSB-M explains how exemption and refund (credit) provisions apply to sales of kerosene under the Tax Law, as amended effective September 1, 2011. In general, kerosene is subject to tax as diesel motor fuel under the excise tax (Article 12-A), petroleum business tax (Article 13-A), and state and local sales taxes (Articles 28 and 29). However, certain exemption and refund (credit) provisions apply. For information on other sales and uses of kerosene and diesel motor fuel, see TSB-M-11(6)M, (11)S, Changes in the Taxation and Classification of Diesel Motor Fuel Beginning September 1, 2011. As explained below, kerosene is exempt from the petroleum business tax, and up-front exemptions for the excise tax and prepaid sales tax apply to sales of dyed kerosene. In addition, under certain circumstances, suppliers may sell undyed kerosene to consumers without these taxes included and claim a refund or credit on the appropriate tax return for taxes that they absorbed when they purchased it. Petroleum business tax exemption Kerosene sold or used by a registered distributor (distributor) is exempt from the petroleum business tax, provided the kerosene is: 1) not blended or mixed with any other product constituting diesel motor fuel, motor fuel, or residual petroleum product; and 2) not used by the distributor or sold to a consumer as fuel to operate a motor vehicle. Also see Kerosene sold as highway diesel motor fuel on page 4. -
