Design and build an electric car charger station with a renewable source of energy at IUK

Abstract

Construction and use of electric cars have increased dramatically in recent years. It's totally silent, productive, wasteful to a minimum, and needs zero care. Although electric vehicles might help cut down on carbon dioxide emissions, the charging stations required to keep their batteries at an adequate level would put a significant strain on the country's electrical grid. Renewable energy sources, such as solar power, have the potential to lessen the burden on the power system. Assisting the power grid by installing standalone recharge stations is a terrific idea. However, the electrical design of such systems might require a wide range of tactics and complexities. An original and clear analysis and design for a solar-powered, standalone charging station is presented in this paper. We create a set of simple, closed- form design equations for the entire system. The case study-style calculations used in the design of the recommended charging station are included. Afterwards, the system is modelled and simulated using the MATLAB/Simulink platform. Constructing an experimental setup also provides physical verification of the technique. The proposed system's theoretical design agrees with the outcomes of experiments and simulations. The results show that the EV's battery charging technique is entirely reliable, even when PV insolation fluctuates intermittently. And since the energy storage battery can be charged and discharged at will, it may be used to accurately store and adjust for variations in PV energy production.
