Abstract

The limited number of public charging stations remains a major obstacle, particularly in the Yogyakarta region, which has experienced a rise in electric vehicle (EV) adoption. One of the main challenges is range anxiety, especially in last-mile delivery operations that demand high mobility and a strong reliance on power availability. This study aims to design the optimal placement of public charging stations to support last-mile delivery in Yogyakarta. Unlike previous studies that focus on public infrastructure, this research emphasizes the needs of commercial private-sector logistics operations. The method employed is the Set Covering Problem (SCP), which is used to determine the minimum number of charging station locations required to cover all service points within a specified distance limit. Station coverage is analyzed based on the electric vehicle's driving range and existing road networks, assuming a maximum distance to the station of 24 km to maintain range anxiety below 30%. The study reveals that the optimal location of EV charging facilities is highly influenced by operational coverage limits. In an ideal scenario with full battery capacity, a single station at DC Wiyoro is sufficient to serve the entire service area. However, as battery capacity drops to 10% and 8%, the optimal configuration requires up to three redistributed locations to ensure full coverage. These findings highlight the importance of an adaptive approach in EV infrastructure design, considering real operational conditions and driver perceptions of power reliability in sustainable last-mile delivery operations.
