Range Prediction for EVs via Crowd-Sourcing

Drivers of electric vehicles (EVs) need an accurate energy prediction in order to prevent running out of battery. We introduce a cloud-based system using crowd-sourced speed profiles for the energy prediction, since they consider the individual driving behaviour and the prevailing traffic congestion. In this paper, we focus on the modular cloud-based energy prediction system which provides three prediction values with various degrees of accuracy and complexity for different user groups. We realise a prototypical driving range prediction before the start of a trip within an application for a mobile device.
