Abstract

The transportation sector is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute to climate change. In recent years, Electric Vehicles (EVs) have emerged as a promising solution to reduce the carbon footprint of transportation. However, one of the biggest obstacles to its widespread adoption is the lack of adequate charging infrastructure. Solar-powered EV charging stations present a promising solution to this problem, as it can provide a clean and renewable energy for charging EVs while reducing the strain on the grid during peak hours. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the technical requirements for designing and developing solar-powered EV charging stations. This includes considerations such as the location, size, and capacity of the stations, as well as the types of Evs which are designed to charge. The research also examines the economic feasibility of these stations, including the initial capital costs, operating costs, and potential revenue streams.
