Development and Thermodynamic Analysis of a 100% Renewable Energy Driven Electrical Vehicle Charging Station with Sustainable Energy Storage

Comprehensive risk assessment of a renewables‐based stand‐alone electric vehicle charging station with multiple energy storage technologies

“…The same approach was used in the study Ref. [65], to analyze electrolytic hydrogen generation systems using HAZOP and FMEA. All hazards in the system were due to the security measures in place found within acceptable risk levels.…”

The enablers, opportunities and challenges of electric vehicle adoption in Qatar: A systematic review of the literature and assessment of progress toward transportation transformation targets

“…Four different strategies for solving the aforementioned issue were found within the literature. These were (a) development of off-grid charging systems to avoid increased strain on the current grid [16][17][18][19][20], (b) diversification of energy production systems to include photovoltaic power generation with the existing grid [10], (c) development of smart charging schedules to temporally spread out the load to be more manageable throughout the day [21], and (d) modeling the spatial arrangement of charging networks to better distribute the load during charging events [4,11,12,28].…”

“…Before the launch of the first major project, researchers had been calling for the development of Qatar's solar capacity (2). In addition to centralized, large-scale solar power projects, five papers discussed the solution of off-grid EVCS [16][17][18][19][20]. All papers conclude that an off-grid EVCS should include two to three main power sources-solar (PV), wind turbines, and optionally bio-generators-along with some form of energy storage system either in the form of batteries or in the form of chemical storage [16][17][18][19][20].…”

Four of these papers focus on developing an EVCS that can support 50 vehicles per day [16][17][18][19][20]. This system would require 250 kW of wind turbine produced energy, 450-468 kW of CPV/T, and 10-100 kW of biodiesel [16][17][18][19][20] (see Table 3 for paper by paper breakdown).…”
