Cover Story: This paper presents a novel framework for optimally sizing heavy-duty electric vehicle (HDEV) charging stations (CSs) using a multi-period deployment strategy. Two types of CSs—utility-based and renewable energy-based—are modeled and analyzed, considering uncertainty in solar PV generation, HDEV behavior, and charger reliability. The framework employs real-world depot traffic data and a mixed-approach optimization method to determine cost-effective infrastructure growth aligned with HDEV adoption timelines. Case studies show that the proposed method reduces annual costs by up to 78% in the early deployment period compared to fully built-out CSs. The results offer actionable insights for fleet operators and policymakers seeking scalable, low-cost electrification strategies. View this paper
