Utilization of EV Charging Station in Demand Side Management Using Deep Learning Method

Abdul Hafeez et al.

Summary: Conventional energy sources are a major source of pollution and efforts are being made to reduce CO2 emissions. Research shows that EVs can reduce CO2 emissions by 28% by 2030. However, the high cost of EVs and the lack of charging stations hinder their widespread adoption. This paper proposes a data-driven approach using a solar-powered EV charging station connected to a microgrid to address these obstacles. Real-time data was used to simulate PV power stations, commercial loads, residential loads, and EV charging stations. A deep learning approach was developed to control energy supply and charge EVs during off-peak hours. Results from a 24-hour case study show that the proposed approach effectively compensates for peak demand with the help of EV charging stations.

The approach also deals with uncertainties associated with EVs, traffic flow, and SDG using the 2m Point Estimation Method (2m PEM).
