Abstract : This paper discusses cooperation applied to a platoon of electric vehicles using an Eco-Driving Optimal Controller (EDOC). The proposed algorithm is evaluated in terms of energy efficiency and string compactness in comparison with the non-cooperative EDOC and standard adaptive cruise control using a drive cycle based scenario. A theoretical analysis of string stability with and without cooperation is presented. The simulation results show that a platoon with cooperative EDOC performs better in terms of energy efficiency and string compactness than without cooperation.
