Analysis of solar power electric vehicle charging station
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummaryThe world is facing pressure on fossil fuels, so most countries are moving towards sustainable, reliable, efficient, economic, and green energy resources. Fossil fuels are one of the main threats to Earth’s environment as they contribute to many CO2 emissions. On the other hand, fossil fuel depletion and subsequent increases in fuel cost. To overcome the global emissions problem, most electric utility industries should move towards renewable resources. In this project, our main concern is to promote environmentally friendly technology and the solar power electric vehicle charging station industry in Pakistan. The objective of our project is to develop an EV charging station on basis of solar power. This project reduces the consumption of conventional electricity and will be economical for daily use. We will introduce the Solar Panels in our system for the generation of electricity.

- Reduction of conventional electricity consumption
- Economical charging cost for EV industry in Pakistan
- Technical analysis of solar charger
- Analysis of charging time and thermal profile of solar charger
System sizing starts with identifying the standards and regulations for EV charging stations. Solar energy is directly related to the location’s climatology; hence, comprehension and analyses of weather patterns become imperative. Next, a daily load for the charging station is decided, after which suitable system components are chosen and manual calculations are done to size the battery bank and the solar array capacity. Then, using simulation, the system performance is analyzed, and the array capacity is altered to minimize unwanted losses. Further simulations are performed on the new array capacity, and modifications are done if required. This is an iterative process, and amendments are made to attain the most optimized version of the solar PV system. Finally, the performance data, thus calculated, are recorded and compared for different locations.
