A HIGH-EFFICIENCY SOLAR–WIND HYBRID ENERGYMANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING

Abstract

This research reveals a greener method of charging EVs, one that makes use of both solar and wind power. Both our carbon footprint and our use of fossil fuels are reduced as a result of this. The proposed technique creates a hybrid renewable energy system by merging photovoltaic (PV) panels with wind generators. Charging electric cars is made possible with an improved power control interface. Solar and wind power systems employ Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) to maximize energy harvesting under various weather conditions. The output power of a hybrid system is managed by a device that stores energy in batteries and a DC-DC converter. Even if the generator goes out, this ensures that power will be supplied at all times. To maintain system stability and facilitate the transfer of excess energy to other locations, a grid-tied inverter is employed. Intelligent energy distribution and prioritizing, together with real-time management and inspection, are all made feasible by a device built on a microprocessor. Tests conducted in MATLAB/Simulink demonstrate the system's ability to efficiently and dependably charge electric vehicles, while simultaneously enhancing environmentally friendly off-grid mobility choices.
