Background: The global transition to green energy and the rapid development of Electric Vehicle (EV) technology, along with falling component costs, have fueled the growing popularity of electric vehicles. To support the widespread adoption of EVs, an efficient and userfriendly charging infrastructure is crucial.
Objective: This work aims to propose a comprehensive EV charging system that addresses the rising demand for charging stations, streamlines the charging process, and empowers EV drivers with essential information. The primary focus is on an economical and effective booking system, enabling users to locate nearby charging stations and make informed choices about their charging preferences.
Method: We suggest developing a EVs Charging Finder App, serving as a central platform for EV users to find nearby charging stations. The app will provide vital details, including ratings, reviews, available time slots, charging duration estimates, and more. Users can also contribute new charging station data, fostering app growth. Additionally, an alert system will notify users when nearby charging slots become available, enhancing convenience for EV drivers.
Results: The EVs Charging Finder App is anticipated to significantly enhance the accessibility and convenience of EV charging. Users can effortlessly locate charging stations, assess quality through reviews and ratings, and plan charging sessions based on real-time availability. The battery voltage of 45.2 V is a critical parameter for monitoring the health and performance of the battery, influencing the accuracy of state of charge (SoC) estimations and potentially impacting the efficiency of the electric vehicle. The 47.7 km driven is a key factor in assessing energy consumption and vehicle efficiency, which can affect the remaining state of charge in the battery. The battery's state of charge (SOC) is at 85%, indicating a relatively high charge level. Knowing that the charging station is available is crucial for planning charging activities, allowing users to proceed without concerns about station availability. The booking time at 10:00 AM is essential for efficiently managing charging infrastructure, especially in scenarios with high demand for charging services. These data points collectively contribute to optimizing the charging experience and ensuring the effective utilization of electric vehicle resources.
Conclusion: The proposed EVs Charging Finder App offers a practical and efficient solution to address the surging demand for charging stations. By providing comprehensive information and real-time alerts, this system aims to make EV charging more accessible, user-friendly, and environmentally sustainable.
