Abstract: As fossil fuel supplies run out, renewable energy sources, or RESs, are becoming increasingly important. Due
to their accessibility and user-friendliness, solar and wind energy systems are the most popular RESs. In order
to improve energy efficiency and dependability, this work combines solar (PV) panels, wind energy systems,
and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations into a hybrid energy system (HES). A Maximum Power Point
Tracking (MPPT) system based on fuzzy logic is used to maximize energy conversion in wind and
photovoltaic systems. A fuzzy MPPT controller is used by the wind subsystem to maximize turbine output
under variable wind conditions, while the PV system adapts to changing irradiance, temperature, and
nonlinear circumstances for optimal solar energy harvesting. A charge controller regulates battery energy,
ensuring efficient charging and state of charge (SOC) monitoring. A grid-connected inverter transforms DC
to AC for grid interfacing and a boost converter controls DC voltage for DC loads. Buck-boost converters
control voltage and provide real-time SOC, current, and voltage monitoring for EV batteries. When paired
with pulse width modulation (PWM), the fuzzy MPPT algorithm ensures efficient power flow throughout the
system. Key performance variables, including battery state of charge, load voltage, and current, are
continuously monitored. This hybrid system aims to enhance sustainability and energy efficiency for EV
charging applications in MATLAB/Simulink.
1 INTRODUCTION
The growing need for efficient and sustainable energy
solutions emphasizes how important renewable
energy sources are to solving the world's energy
problems. In particular, solar and wind energy
provide clean, plentiful, and environmentally friendly
substitutes for traditional fossil fuels, which makes
them crucial for cutting greenhouse gas emissions and
halting climate change. In hybrid energy systems,
combining photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy units
takes advantage of their complementary qualities,
where wind may make up for decreased solar output
in
low light levels, guaranteeing a more steady and
dependable energy supply. Furthermore, by
optimizing energy extraction under various
environmental conditions, Maximum Power Point
Tracking (MPPT) algorithms increase the efficiency
of these systems, maximizing performance and
lowering operating costs.
Hybrid energy systems not only improve energy
reliability, but they also help to maintain grid stability
by eliminating variations in power generation and
demand. By incorporating energy storage
technologies such as modern battery systems, these
setups may store extra energy created during peak
production periods and release it during high-demand
periods, assuring continuous energy availability.
Furthermore, the hybrid approach reduces the chance
of power interruptions, especially in rural or off-grid
areas, making it an excellent choice for increasing
energy access in underserved areas.
Grid connectivity strengthens these systems by
allowing for bi-directional energy flow, where
surplus energy may be supplied back into the grid,
generating additional revenue streams and
encouraging a circular energy economy. This also
enables flawless synchronization with the main grid
during periods of high demand, improving system
adaptability and scalability for future energy
requirements.
This work aims to create an integrated energy
system that maximizes the possibilities of renewable
energy and innovative storage technologies. It

includes sophisticated control systems to ensure
energy efficiency and system stability. The
technology seeks to serve essential applications like
EV charging infrastructure by offering a sustainable
and efficient energy solution. This approach not only
promotes the adoption of electric vehicles by
addressing their charging needs, but it also helps to
achieve the larger aims of lowering greenhouse gas
emissions, improving energy security, and fostering
energy independence. Furthermore, the hybrid
system's adaptability allows for scaling, making it
suitable for a variety of geographical regions and
energy demands. This ensures its relevance in both
urban and remote places, encouraging widespread
adoption of sustainable energy technologies.
1.1 MPPT METHODS
MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) is an
algorithm in charge controllers that maximizes the
output power of PV modules by changing the
operating point to the maximum power point. This
maximizes the energy yield from sunlight, increasing
the efficiency of solar power systems.
The efficiency of The HES (Hybrid Energy
System) based EV Charging Station can be enhanced
by applying following MPPT algorithms:
1.1.1 Perturb and Observe Technique
(P&O)
The Perturb and Observe (P&O) technique tracks the
maximum power point (MPP) by gradually adjusting
PV voltage. While oscillations can happen near the
maximum power point (MPP) in steady-state settings,
it tends to shift toward the MPP as power increases.
It is extensively used because of its versatility and
simplicity, and improvements increase its efficiency.
1.1.2 Incremental Conductance (INC)
The Incremental Conductance method calculates
the maximum power point (MPP) by comparing
incremental conductance to array conductance. It
carefully adjusts voltage to maintain MPP under
changing situations. In comparison to P&O, this
approach is speedier and less likely to cause
oscillations.
1.1.3 Modified Perturb and Observe (P&O)
The modified P&O MPPT algorithm improves on
classic P&O by decreasing oscillations around the
MPP and increasing tracking speed. It handles quick
variations in irradiance or temperature by using
adaptive step sizes or anticipatory adjustments. This
improves both efficiency and stability in power
extraction.
1.1.4 Fuzzy MPPT
The fuzzy MPPT algorithm uses fuzzy logic to
determine the maximum power point (MPP) by
modifying step size in response to irradiance and
temperature. It provides rapid, steady, and adaptive
tracking with minimal oscillations, making it perfect
for dynamic environments.
Among the MPPT algorithms stated above, the
fuzzy MPPT method was chosen for the hybrid
energy EV charging station because it is fast,
adaptive, resistant to nonlinearity, and successfully
manages hybrid system integration.
Because of its versatility, accuracy, and dynamic
reaction, the fuzzy MPPT algorithm is favoured for
managing abrupt changes in temperature and
irradiance. It employs fuzzy logic to deliver faster,
more reliable tracking of the maximum power point
(MPP) with fewer oscillations than traditional
techniques like P&O and INC. It effectively harvests
maximum power under a variety of scenarios by
dynamically altering step sizes, guaranteeing the
smooth integration of grid, PV, wind, and battery
systems. This outperforms conventional MPPT
algorithms in terms of energy yield, stability, and
overall hybrid energy system performance for EV
charging.

ensures consistent power delivery under fluctuating
load and environmental circumstances.
In the study (Savio, Juliet, et al. , 2019), the author
proposed an on-grid solar and wind hybrid system for
EV charging that provides dependable power while
decreasing grid dependency. It reduces renewable
intermittency, lowers carbon emissions, and provides
long-term savings. The system promotes green
transportation and encourages the use of hybrid
renewable energy systems.
In this work (Katageri, Nisahathfareen, et al. ,
2021) the researcher, In order to reduce pollution and
grid reliance, the author developed a hybrid fast-
charging system that uses local renewable energy. For
EV charging, a MATLAB-Simulink model illustrates
how solar and wind energy operate under various
circumstances. By cutting down on charging time,
battery switching encourages EV adoption and
contributes to a cleaner environment.
In the proposed work (Reddy and Birudala, 2024),
the researcher developed an off-grid PV-based EV
charging station that uses energy storage systems
(ESS) rather than grid electricity. The system
produces enough energy based on irradiance and
temperature, with ESS providing backup when solar
power is insufficient. The model is both cost-effective
and sustainable. It demonstrates the potential for
future EV charging applications.
In this work (Kumar and Rajan, et al. , 2023), the
author in order to efficiently satisfy load demands,
MATLAB/Simulink was used to simulate a hybrid
energy system (HES) that included PV, WECS, a
diesel generator, and battery storage. MPPT
algorithms and converters ensure voltage
management and consistent performance. The
method is ideal for both remote communication and
precise watering. During periods of low demand,
surplus power can be fed back into the system.
3 METHODOLOGY
Fig.1 shows the block diagram of the proposed
method and the motivation behind developing the
HES based EV Charging station is to promote a
cleaner and eco-friendly transportation instead of
depending on fossil fuels.
Figure 1: Block Diagram of HES based EV Charging
Station
This block diagram illustrates a hybrid energy
system that combines wind, solar (PV), battery
storage, and the AC grid to power EV charging
stations.
The wind and PV systems create DC power,
which is optimized with fuzzy MPPT controllers and
DC/DC converters. Excess energy is stored in the
battery bank and regulated by a charge controller.
When renewable sources are insufficient, the AC grid
provides electricity, which is converted to DC using
a full-bridge inverter. The DC bus takes electricity
from multiple sources and transfers it to three EV
charging stations, ensuring efficient and long-lasting
power delivery.
The proposed system Illustrates the
MATLAB/Simulink model of HES based EV
Charging Station.
In order to guarantee a dependable
power source for EV charging, the hybrid energy
system integrates solar (PV) and wind energy with
battery storage, charge controllers, and grid
connectivity. Energy from renewable sources is
controlled and directed by charge controllers to either
the DC bus for instant consumption or the battery for
storage. While buck-boost regulators effectively
charge EV batteries, the grid-connected inverter
synchronizes with the grid for energy consumption or
output.
Hence let’s understand the working of whole
model in a Detailed manner :

minimal. Some may suggest using high-power
concentrators to boost power production; however,
doing so raises the cost.

3.3 Charge Controller
Figure 8: Simulation of Charge controller
The above figure illustrates the charge controller
controls the flow of power between the battery, EVs,
and PV/wind energy sources. It keeps the battery
from being overcharged or deeply discharged,
extending its lifespan. For optimum system efficiency
and smooth grid integration, it also controls energy
distribution. Let’s understand the working of charge
controller in depth
The producing plant uses MPPT control, and the
charging control is mostly reliant on the ESS's SOC
and power supply. The terms Power from Hybrid
Plant (Hp), Power Demand (Pd), and SOC of ESS
(Se) refer to its four operating modes.
Mode 1:
When PP > PD and SE is within maximum
and minimum limits, electricity is given to the EV and
surplus power is sent to ESS.
Mode 2: When PP>PD and SE is out of limits, the
surplus power will be given to grid or connected to
dummy loads for Power balance.
Mode 3:
When PP, PD, and SE are between
limitations, ESS supplies the demand from EV.
Mode 4: When Hp < Pd and Se < minimal value,
energy demand is taken from grid to DC bus. If our
charging station is in an off- grid area, we intend to
operate in the above 3 modes. Similar to a solar plant.
