Abstract

Charging station is the main infrastructure of electric vehicles. It is needed if vehicle voyages at long distances. Commonly, electric scooter was charged at home or office. So it cannot cruise at long range. Solar energy is a proper renewable energy can be applied to electric vehicles due to gas emission. In this paper, charging station for electric scooter is designed and developed. Constant Current-Constant Voltage (CC–CV) is applied as a charging method. The station is powered by a 1.2 KWP on-grid photovoltaic array to reduce electric consumption. Photovoltaic array is constructed on the rooftop of the charging station. The charging station is equipped with friendly user interface human–machine communication for the billing system. Billing communication to GSM server is done by using SIM808 and internal communication by using CAN-bus. Experimental result shows photovoltaic contributes 33% of charging power requirement in clear weather. It needs 50 min time charging from 53 to 90% of battery SOC. Sequence billing process needs 3.05 min.
