Photovoltaic Electric Vehicle Charging Station Under Jordanian Climate

Abstract

With the advancement of the industry today and the increasing prices of fuel in the world, private businesses are looking for alternative and cheaper sources of energy, in this paper we will attempt to supply ELECTRIC VEHICLE with electrical energy using a PV system.

We discussed the type of station levels and the components of these station like Photovoltaic array, Inverter; on-grid and of grid, Charge Controllers, Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) , AC/DC main cable, battery. Then we studied the economic feasibility for all types of these stations.

By using Simulink and modeling programs; we obtain analytical electrical data for the system, such as load curves, output power curves, and various other characteristics curves.

Keywords: Photovoltaic, Electric Vehicle, Battery, Simulink.
