Study of the Efficiency of Using Facilities Based on Renewable Energy Sources for Charging Electric Vehicles in Kazakhstan

Abstract

In this study, the process of popularisation of electric vehicles in Kazakhstan is considered in more detail, since there is a small number of these transports, which negatively affects the economy and ecology of the country. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficiency of the use of electric vehicles and the use of facilities based on renewable energy sources for charging them on the territory of Kazakhstan. The research methodology is the analysis of literature sources to investigate the efficiency of the use of electric vehicles, the correct development of models for the location of charging stations, and the efficiency of renewable energy sources as a way to boost the economy and reduce energy costs. The ways of popularising electric vehicles in the country were considered. The modelling of charging stations for electric vehicles was studied. In addition, the electric vehicle batteries were investigated. This study can be used to support decision-making for the design of charging stations for electric vehicles in the cities of Kazakhstan, which would bring economic and environmental benefits.
