A Review on Photovoltaic based DC Fast charging station for Electric Vehicles

Abstract

he adoption of Electric vehicles is continuously rising due to the spike in oil prices and environmental pollution. The Major impediments to the adoption of an electric vehicle are charging time, range, and charging infrastructure. DC Fast charging station provides quick charging to electric vehicles and becomes one of the attractive solutions for overcoming the impediment to adopting electric vehicles. In this paper, PV interconnected DC fast charging stations with specific attention to the standards of charging, charging components, operating modes, Energy management system, and Battery management system are discussed
