Renewable Power Integration for Electric Vehicle Charging System: A Review

This review paper accentuates on the conceivable integration of renewable based generations to the charging stations of Electric Vehicles (EVs) towards restraining the carbon emissions. The intensifying global demand for EVs in recent days puts stress on conventional grid with existing infrastructure, which could be relaxed by integration of renewable based power generations with ecological balance. The importance and feasibility of renewable integrations to charge the EVs are reviewed in this paper and suitable applications are reported to develop charging infrastructures for EVs. The importance of vehicle to grid (V2G) concept is also reviewed to facilitate ancillary support to future grid integrated with renewables.
