Description:
<jats:p>The fleet operation model in which electric vehicles coexist with traditional vehicles is becoming increasingly popular. Because electric vehicles have certain disadvantages and usage limitations, the multi-center management of the distribution of mixed fleets is very complex. There is no research on the multi-center mixed vehicle routing problem based on the integration of reverse logistics and dynamic energy consumption. In response to this challenge, this study proposes a solution to the multi-center mixed vehicle routing problem considering dynamic energy consumption and integrated reverse logistics. Specifically, three studies were carried out: (1) Considering the influencing factors of the operating cost system of the mixed fleet, a system dynamics model was constructed. (2) On the basis of considering delaying the aging of electric vehicle batteries, a new charging station insertion strategy was designed. (3) Based on a novel charging station insertion strategy, a fast non-dominated sorting multi-objective genetic algorithm with an elite strategy was designed to solve this problem. We designed 15 groups of examples to prove the effectiveness of the model and algorithm. The experimental results show that 46.67% of the cases have more than 60% customer satisfaction. The average expenditure cost of 15 groups of cases is CNY 2018.33, which can improve the average customer satisfaction by 22.94%. This method helps companies to formulate transportation plans according to the actual situation, including providing a cost model that considers multiple influencing factors and improving the average customer satisfaction while reducing the total cost expenditure. We believe that the results of this research can provide methods and ideas for logistics companies with multiple distribution centers to formulate large-scale distribution plans.</jats:p>
