Smart EV Charging Station With ON Grid Green Power & Wireless Charging

Abstract

Emerging nations like India are deploying electric vehicle (EV) technology and phasing out the use of fossil fuel-powered vehicles as part of their effort to tackle climate change and rising urban pollution. In April 2017, the Indian government declared that all EVs would be sold on the market by 2030. Also followed is the promotion of the FAME (faster adoption and production of electric vehicles) program. The infrastructure for electric charging is a crucial part of the ecosystem for electric mobility. The market for EV charging stations must grow and accept EVs at the same rate. EVs are constrained by their speed and range. The key to successful electric vehicle use is the network of charging stations that are available. Electric vehicles (EVs) will be smoothly incorporated into the transportation system, which is one of the key elements of future smart city planning. The primary energy source for EVs is a charging station, and a city's accessibility to EVs depends on the station's location. They should be placed thoughtfully so that an electric vehicle (EV) can access a charging station within driving distance and travel anywhere in the city once it has been recharged. In this article, we formulate the Electric Vehicle Charging Station Placement Problem, in which we want to reduce the overall construction cost while keeping in mind the drivers' convenience and the charging station coverage requirements. We examine the problem's characteristics, particularly its hardness.
