This paper addresses the problem of finding the optimal Eco-Driving (ED) speed profile of an electric Connected and Automated Vehicle (CAV) in an isolated urban unsignalized intersection. The problem is formulated as a single-level optimization and solved using Pontryagin's Minimum Principle (PMP). Analytical solutions are presented for various conflicts that occur at an intersection. Cooperation is introduced amongst CAVs as the ability to share intentions. Two levels of cooperation, namely the Cooperative ED (C-ED) and Non-Cooperative (NC-ED) algorithms are evaluated, in a simulation environment, for energy efficiency with Intelligent Driver Model (IDM) as the baseline.
