In this article, an optimal photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage system with hybrid approach design for electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS) is proposed. The hybrid approach combines the use of polar transformer networks (PTNs) and the puzzle optimization algorithm (POA); hence it is called as POA–PTN approach. The main objective is to lessen the charging station cost and pollutant emissions. The proposed method is minimizing the pollutant emissions and the annual cost of PV with EVCS, which is done by POA method and predicts the optimal solution is done by PTN approach. The proposed method is executed in the MATLAB platform, and compared with existing methods, including heap‐based optimization, particle swarm optimization, and wild horse optimizer approaches. The proposed technique demonstrates superior performance, achieving the lowest net present cost of €1.45 × 106 and emissions of 2.25 × 108 g year−1 with a shorter computing time of 13.04 s compared to the other methods.

“…Furthermore, the authors suggest expanding this research to encompass investigations into diverse climatic conditions, economic implications, and health considerations related to heat transfer enhancements (HTEs) or PCMs. A growing body of research is dedicated to finding innovative ways to store more energy in less time using PCMs alongside other materials and techniques like nanoparticles and fins [54][55][56][57]. Some of these HTEs involve integrating various methods to enhance efficiency and storage capacity while reducing the duration of charging and discharging periods [12,22] or using PCM encapsulation to increase the stratification capacity of a TES tank and have hot water available for longer.…”

The utilization of phase change materials (PCMs) in solar water heating systems (SWHS) has undergone notable advancements, driven by a rising demand for systems delivering superior performance and efficiency. Extensive research suggests that enhancing heat transfer (HTE) in storage systems is crucial for achieving these improvements. This review employs a bibliometric analysis to track the evolution of HTE methods within this field. While current literature underscores the necessity for further exploration into hot water generation applications, several methodologies exhibit significant promise. Particularly, strategies such as fins, encapsulation, and porous media emerge as prominent HTE techniques, alongside nanofluids, which hold the potential for augmenting solar water heating systems. This review also identifies numerous unexplored techniques awaiting investigation, aiming to pave new paths in research and application within the field of hot water generation. It highlights methods that could be used independently or alongside predominantly used techniques.

This study examines how tree‐like fins can be used to improve the phase‐change process of Latent Heat Storage (LHS) systems. ANSYS‐Fluent was utilized to predict the temperature distribution and the time‐evolution of the phase‐change process. A Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) at 353 K was used for the charging, and 293 K for the discharging process in a shell and tube configuration. Results showed that tree‐like fins provide superior thermal performance compared to straight fins (base case) for both charging and discharging. The thermal performance is enhanced when employing short fin lengths relative to their maximum size at each branch (small αn values). This reduces the temperature gradients within the PCM without increasing the volume occupied by the fins within the LHS system. In addition, decreasing αn values increases the heat transfer area between the fins and Phase‐Change Material (PCM). Designs with two bifurcations achieved a notable increase in their heat transfer area, accelerating the phase‐change process compared to the base case.
