Minimizing number of stops

Recommended Posts

ABRP seems to optimize for fastest travel time, no matter that it might add charging stops down to 8 minutes.

Is there a way to get ABRP to plan a route while MINIMIZING the number of charging stops, e.g. via longer charging stops?

Hi Axeman,

did you test using the  "Time to Open Charge Port" setting?

e.g. set it to 30 minutes and see what the planner does.

I just tested it for my car (Hyundai Ioniq 28kW) and changing the setting from 5 minutes to 40 minutes reduced the number of fastcharging stops from 5 to 3

Thanks for your suggestion :-)I

Yes - you can do lots of 'hacks' like that, but they often come as you start "massaging" the route plan to get the kind of travel plan you want.

 I was more thinking of whether it was somewhere possible (in an obscure subsetting) to set that you want to optimize for the fewest number of stops.

See this example.

Would make much more sense to add some minutes at "Dammer Berge Ost" and skip the additional stop at "Modem innogy eMobility".

Same for "Ostetal Süd": charge a bit more and skip "Hoyer"

Is there an option to force charging to xx % for a charging stop ?
(i.e. Force charging to 70% at "Dammer Berge Ost" should fix the first problem)

Hi,

I have the same trouble here.

it makes a turn around on the highway to go back on the same charger but on the other side of the road...

I don't understand why ?

Yes, there is a setting specifically for requesting fewer stops.  Click on the Settings gear and then look under "Charging Stops".  Slide the slider to the left to get "Fewer stops".  See screen shot below.  Please note that you do have to have "Detailed" settings turned on.  This switch is also visible in the screenshot to the right of the word "Settings":
