IoT System for Smart Electric Car Charging Station Using Micro-CPV Unit
摘要
The power supply of a smart station that employs Internet of Things technology to monitor concentrated solar production is the subject of this article. The first section of this study evaluates the general performance of two optical components that will be employed in photovoltaic micro-concentrator (MCPV) systems for electric vehicle charging stations: a Fresnel lens (FL) and two secondary optics (circular and square dome). The time needed to recharge the energy storage system of an electric vehicle is covered in the second section. The technological variations between quick DC chargers and traditional alternating current (AC) chargers are investigated. To examine the cost of charging a car by integrating IoT devices, the collected data is made available online to the original equipment manufacturers of each charging station. Although the two circular SOs have the highest intensity and best uniformity, the square dome has optimal homogeneity and maximum optical efficiency according to the first simulation findings. Therefore, to generate such a volume of electricity for fast charging, a solar system with a total output of approximately 120 kW is required. One hundred sixty-seven multi-junction cells are required for this energy to power an electric vehicle at any power level. As a result, 120.24 kW of power are generated. Therefore, 1.3 m2 of the total surface is needed for our charging station. Unlike the stations in Morocco, our station does not need a big space or a lot of power. The optical system provides the best way for the system to equip EV users with an execution framework to deliver energy demand solutions to all entities operating in a charging smart station infrastructure.
