In the pursuit of sustainable urban transportation, the transition from traditional fossil fuel-powered buses to battery electric buses (BEBs) presents a significant leap forward. However, this shift introduces a critical challenge in the form of the BEB scheduling and charger location (EBSCL) problem. The limited driving range of BEBs necessitates the strategic reassignment of buses for service trips, known as the electric vehicle scheduling problem. Simultaneously, the optimal placement of charging infrastructure adds complexity to the overall transit electrification process. Our study addresses this challenge by proposing an integrated model that optimizes both BEB scheduling and charger location. The source code is available at https://gitlab.com/AmirDavatgari/etcp.
