Abstract

With technological improvement, the interest in electric vehicles (EVs) has regained in the 21st century, as well as the focus on renewable energy sources and a potential to reduce the negative impacts of transportation on environmental issues like the climate change. The fast charging stations are gaining popularity with electric cars as they can shorten the time, and help to reduce range anxiety. For effective alleviating grid stress and reduction of carbon emissions, it is essential to integrate solar systems with conventional direct current fast charging stations. However, challenges exist since GIC are underutilized and ESS are too expensive. To fully leverage the advantages of electric vehicle (EV) installations and their supporting charging infrastructure, these challenges must be effectively addressed. A proposed direct current (DC) fast-charging station architecture, designed to operate solely with photovoltaic (PV) systems and without incorporating energy storage systems (ESS), aims to minimize costs. In scenarios where an ESS is absent from the fast-charging setup, the suggested Smart Charging Algorithm (SCA) ensures optimal alignment between power sources and loads from both the grid and EVs. This optimization enhances power output from the PV system while maximizing the efficiency of grid-integrated chargers (GICs). The GICs function based on a grid-regulated algorithm (GRA), while EVs follow a self-regulated algorithm (SRA). As long as DC bus voltage fluctuations remain within an acceptable range, the SRA dynamically adjusts the charging power for each EV according to its state-of-charge (SOC) feedback, ensuring power balance within the fast-charging system (FCS). Both simulation and experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed SCA. Additionally, the GRA takes part in the regulation process when the DC bus voltage remains within the predefined excitation voltage range, ultimately reducing the overall charging time for EV batteries.
