Smart Electric Vehicle Charging Station using Solar Power

Electric vehicle (EV) charging stations powered by renewable energy sources, such as solar power, can significantly reduce carbon emissions from transportation. In this paper, we propose a smart electric vehicle charging station that utilizes solar power to charge EVs. The proposed system integrates solar panels, battery storage system, and electric vehicle charging equipment to provide a sustainable and efficient charging solution. Additionally, a smart charging system optimizes the use of solar energy and manages the charging sessions to avoid peak demand periods. We describe the system design, implementation, and benefits of a solar-powered smart EV charging station.
