	abstract = {Optimization of charging profiles for controlled charging of electric vehicles is commonly done via mixed integer linear programming. The runtime of the optimization can represent an issue for the practical use. However, by tuning the parameter setting of the employed solver, it is possible to speed up the optimization process. The present work evaluates two popular hyperparameter tuning tools {\textendash} irace and SMAC {\textendash} for the optimization of parameters of the SCIP solver with the objective to speed up the solving process for four common variants of the electric vehicle charging scheduling problem. Based on the results, the most important solver parameters are identified. It is shown that by tuning a very limited number of parameters, speed-ups of 70\% and more can be achieved.},
