Comparing and parameterizing the electrical energy consumption models in SUMO

This paper examined the performances of the current four battery models in SUMO. The possibility of expanding the model parameterization was also investigated and the corresponding extension was carried out for PHEMlight. Accordingly, the models can be compared more fairly. Three scenarios were used, namely the Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycle, a constant high-speed highway scenario and an area scenario with a relatively complex traffic situation. The results show that all models can address recuperation and propulsion, and deliver the similar result at very low acceleration. The models based on average vehicle data generally tend to deliver higher battery consumption than the models with individual vehicle type-specific parameterization, especially PHEMlight5, while HBEFA4 only has one electric vehicle class and is therefore not sensitive to various vehicle characteristics. Moreover, the model by Kurczveil and López (EVM) seems to tend to have the lowest consumption of all models.
