Abstract The global adoption of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol has prompted governments to provide incentives for electric vehicles (EVs). Advances in battery technology and fast-charging infrastructure are encouraging more people to switch to EVs. However, charging time remains a significant bottleneck, increasing waiting times at charging stations (CS) and extending total trip time. Optimal route selection for EVs is a key research area. This paper proposes selecting the optimal CS to minimize total trip time. EVs send charging requests to a centralized electric vehicle charging network (CEVCN), which chooses the optimum CS based on real-time traffic conditions with minimum total trip time. Simulations conducted in Kolkata, India, across five EV categories show that the average waiting time at CSs is much less than the total trip time. The findings also reveal that the average increased distance from source to destination, including the detour to the charging station, remains on an average consistent despite increased charging requests. © 2025, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
