摘      要：Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to optimize the design of charging station deployed at the terminal station for electric transit,with explicit consideration of heterogenous charging ***/methodology/approach–The authors proposed a bi-level model to optimize the decision-making at both tactical and operational levels ***,at the operational level(*** level),the service schedule and recharging plan of electric buses are optimized under specific design of charging *** objective of lower-level model is to minimize total daily operational *** model is solved by a tailored column generation-based heuristic *** the tactical level(*** level),the design of charging station is optimized based upon the results obtained at the lower level.A tabu search algorithm is proposed subsequently to solve the upper-level ***–This study conducted numerical cases to validate the applicability of the proposed *** managerial insights stemmed from numerical case studies are revealed and discussed,which can help transit agencies design charging station ***/value–The joint consideration of heterogeneous charging modes in charging station would further lower the operational cost of electric transit and speed up the market penetration of battery electric buses.
