Abstract: The development of electric vehicle provides an alternative to conventional fuel vehicles for logistics companies. Using electric vehicles has the merits of less pollution and low noise, but the characteristics of limited cruising range and limited number of charging stations are new challenges. Electric vehicle routing problems(EVRPs) have been widely used in transportation, logistics and other fields, and have received much attention. A comprehensive survey of EVRP and its many variants are presented and the respective backgrounds and applicable conditions are analyzed. The solving approaches of EVRPs are categorized, the strengths and weaknesses of each algorithm are analyzed, and …
