A PV-Wind Based EV Charging Station under Dynamic Weather Conditions

The demand for clean, sustainable electricity produced from renewable energy sources keeps increasing every day. Solar and wind energy are the most promising renewable energy sources since they are readily available and abundant. There have been significant efforts made to use renewable energy in a variety of applications. One such application is the battery charging system for electric vehicles.Global warming resulted in a widespread acceptance of electric vehicles, which look to be good alternative to internal combustion engines. Because of the spike in EV number on road, charging them using a traditional fossil based infrastructure is neither frugal nor operative. So, a sustainable green energy based charging station has enormous value in vehicle charging.EV charging station with solar power, wind power with an Energy Storage Unit is designed in this paper. An efficient charging station design with MPPT and current control technique is designed to ensure smooth power among solar, wind, and energy storage units and the electric vehicle in the charging station.
