Electric Vehicle Enquiry (EVE) Pilot

Abstract: This data paper presents the dataset from a study on the use of electric vehicles (EVs). This dataset covers the first dataset collected in this study: the usage data from a Renault Zoe over 3 years. The process of collection of the dataset, its treatment, and descriptions of all the included variables are detailed. The collection of this dataset represents an iteration of participative research in the personal mobility domain as the dataset was collected with low-cost commercially available equipment and open-source software. Some of the challenges of providing the dataset are also discussed: the most pertinent being the intermittent nature of data collection as an android phone and OBDII adapter were used to collect the dataset.
