Abstract:
The rapid adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) necessitates efficient and sustainable charging solutions. This paper presents an advanced solar and grid-based wireless charging system designed for both static and dynamic EVs. The proposed system integrates Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) with optimized charging scenarios and control strategies. A Raspberry Pi-based monitoring system ensures real-time control and efficiency. Utilizing solar energy reduces dependence on fossil-fuel-based power grids, lowering carbon emissions while addressing the challenges of charging costs. Wireless Power Transmission (WPT), based on inductive resonance enhances charging flexibility, particularly for dynamic charging scenarios. Simulation results demonstrate the impact of the proposed system on voltage stability, peak demand reduction, and cost-effectiveness in EV charging networks. Unlike conventional EV charging methods, which rely on traditional power infrastructures, this approach harnesses renewable energy for a cleaner and more sustainable future. The study validates the feasibility of wireless dynamic charging through MATLAB simulations, showcasing its effectiveness in enabling seamless energy transfer to moving EVs. This innovation paves the way for the widespread adoption of intelligent EV charging infrastructure.
