ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATION USING GRID-CONNECTED HYBRID SYSTEM
Abstract
The main objective of the project is to charge the electric vehicles through charging stations. Recently the demand of electrical vehicles (EVs) have been increasing day by day, then there is need of charging stations. Generally, the supply is taken from the transmission lines, Where the losses and consumption of the supply increases in the transmission lines, So to avoid the losses in the transmission lines. We use the renewable energy sources (SOLAR, WIND) as the supply to the charging stations. The charging station is comprised of a dual converter, charging bays, and EVs. To control the power flow, the charging station is connected to a micro grid controller which helps to control the direction of the power flow at a particular time. EVs can be charged according to their state of charge (SOC).
