A smart management system of electric vehicles charging plans on the highway charging stations

Abstract

Electric vehicles (EVs) are seen as one of the principal pillars of smart transportation to relieve the airborne pollution induced by fossil CO2 emissions. However, the battery limit, especially where the journey is with a long-distance road remains the most formidable obstacle to the large-scale use of EVs. To overcome the issue of prolonged waiting charging time due to the large number of EVs may have a charging plan at the same charging station (CS) along the highway, we propose a communication system to manage the EVs charging demands. The architecture system contains a smart scheduling algorithm to minimize trip time including waiting time, previous reservations and energyare needed to reach the destination. Moreover, an automatic mechanism for updating reservation is integrated to adjust the EVs charging plans. The results of the evaluation under the Moroccan highway scenario connecting Rabat and Agadir show the effectiveness of our proposal system.<br /><div> </div>

Exploring user satisfaction and improvement opportunities in public charging pile resources

“…This analysis is crucial for developing targeted marketing strategies and improvement plans, ensuring sustainable utilization and enhancement of these resources. Many studies on improving the charging pile service have been carried out from different perspectives, such as satisfying the ever-growing demand for the charging service by predicting the number of charging piles needed [4]- [7], finding an appropriate location for charging station construction to form an efficient charging station network [8]- [12], improving the quality and convenience of charging service by building predictive models or organizational architectures to optimize the queuing time [13]- [14], and improving the efficiency of maintenance work by using algorithms to diagnose and detect faulty of charging piles [15]- [17]. These studies have achieved fruitful results in improving the charging pile service by exploring anticipatory planning.…”

A smart system combining real and predicted data to recommend an optimal electric vehicle charging station

“…In addition, we have also proposed a strategy to mitigate the impact of future unknown EVs charging demands caused by the dynamic change of traffic conditions on the roads in [23], [24]. Our method based on the dynamic change of the charging plans of all EVs that have a charging reservation, the updating charging plans are made at each impact in the CSs states due to a new EV charging request.…”

Communication frame work in an electric vehicle charging station supporting solar energy management

“…IoT and cloud are utilized as a tool for energy management using SDN, through simulation at the consumer side [21]- [23]. Simulation studies are reported utilizing EV parameters for energy management [24]. An appropriate communication network is essential for the timely data exchange between EV sensors, EVCS and an energy control unit.…”
