Emission, Mitigation and Estimation through Solar Based Ev Charging Station

Abstract

The paper investigates how we can utilize the renewable source of energy (i.e. solar energy) to charge an EV. Transportation plays a vital role in day to day life. In India, pollution is increasing day by day. Carbon footprints for India are alarming and it can only be reduced with use of renewable energy uses. India’s more than 3/4th of fuel consumption is met by imports from other countries. To boost EVs in Indian market, Solar charging is best method for charging because of two reasons, first no carbon footprints and other is no dependency on grid for power meet. Increasing charging station will be the foremost need of an EV user and it can be employed at various places like- offices, malls hospitals etc. This paper presents an idea about how can solar energy can be used for charging an EV and also gives a comparison chart for EV user and Non-EV user. In addition, a survey was conducted to provide people’s opinion on solar EV charging station. Vehicle to Grid (V2G) method will show power can be supplied to grid from a charged EV. At last its advantages for environment and society are concluded.
