Two Stage Inventory Control For Electric Vehicle Battery Supply Chain In The Battery Leasing Mode

Electric vehicle industry has become the focus of attention with the oriented national policies and the rise of energy-saving and new energy industry in recent years. The batteries leasing mode of energy supplement got great esteem by all parties. Inventory control policy of batteries leasing mode battery central station and battery rental shop is very important to batteries leasing mode, but there are few research in this area home and abroad. In order to help the theoretical study and practical operations we study the optimal inventory control policy for electric vehicle batteries leasing mode system in this paper.Firstly, we make it clear about the background and significance of topics, summary electric car batteries leasing mode and theoretical studies released. Secondly, we analysis the battery supply chain of the batteries leasing mode by application of closed loop supply chain theory, and further we study battery supply chain inventory and its impact of factors. Thirdly, the battery leasing mode system inventory control model including rental shops charging inventory cost model, central station maintenance inventory cost model, the two stage inventory internal cost model, and two stage inventory external cost model are built according to the analysis above and some assumptions. Fourth, to prove the availability of the model built in this paper, we build battery inventory control example, then we analysis system cost structure to select the appropriate inventory control policy. At last, it is the conclusions we get from this paper and the outlook of further research directions.
