Zusammenfassung:The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for assigning travel routes to vehicles. An example method may involve evaluating a first vehicle for deploying on a first travel route and a second vehicle for a second travel route. Evaluating the first vehicle may include determining a first probability that the first vehicle will need a first energy replenishment operation during deployment on the first travel route, and also determining a first deployment cost for the first vehicle. The first deployment cost can include a first energy replenishment cost based on the first probability. Evaluating the second vehicle may include determining a second deployment cost for the second vehicle, the second deployment cost including a second energy replenishment cost. The first vehicle is assigned to the first travel route and the second vehicle to the second travel route if the first deployment cost is less than the second deployment cost.
