Design, Simulation and Analysis of Solar Powered Electric Vehicle Charging station

Abstract

It appears that electric vehicles (EVs) are the best replacement for internal combustion engines (IC engines). They have currently been generally embraced. More energy-efficient, non-polluting automobiles have become necessary as a result of increased environmental concerns in recent years. Nowadays since there are more electric vehicles on the road, charging them using the traditional fossil fuel-based grid is not cheap & efficient. The substantial gains in fuel cell powered electric vehicles have been made possible by the quick advancements in power electronics and fuel cell technology. Many benefits of fuel cells include their high density current output capability, ability to produce clean electricity, and great operational efficiency. EVs are growing, but most vehicles still use ICEs. Lack of charging infrastructure and grid pollution must be addressed to accelerate EV adoption. The only disadvantage of EV is the high cost of energy storage systems (ESS). EV technology includes EV supply equipment, energy storage systems, and chargers.
