SOLAR WIRELESS ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING SYSTEM

Abstract

This paper details the planning and design of a solar-powered charging for electric vehicles, a solution to the dual problems of expensive gasoline and harmful emissions. The number of countries with electric vehicles on the road is steadily rising. In addition to helping the environment, electric vehicles have proven useful in cutting down on transportation costs by substituting expensive fuel with much more affordable power. Here, we create a novel and effective answer to this problem by designing an electric vehicle charging infrastructure. There is no need to stop for charging because the EV can do so while it is in motion; the system is powered by solar energy; and there is no need for an additional power source. For its construction, the system employs a solar panel, battery, transformer, regulator circuitry, copper coils, AC to DC converter, atmega controller, and LCD display. This technology follows the ideology that charging electric vehicles can be done without having to pull over to a charging station. So, the technology proves the viability of a road-integrated, solar-powered wireless charging system for EVs
