“…However, with the EV purchasing costs declining and ranges steadily increasing, charging may soon become the most significant barrier to the adoption of electromobility [2]. Bernal et al [3] provide a model to optimize charging station management with the use of reservations made in advance, while also calculating the ideal pricing and management strategy, to handle the issue of uncertainty associated with connector availability. Kumar et al [4] created a distributed system that, based on the battery level, road conditions, the spatial distribution of charging stations, and their available resources and occupancy levels, plans an energy-efficient route, while employing an agile charging slot reservation approach.…”

The widespread adoption of electro mobility constitutes one of the measures designed to reduce air pollution caused by traditional fossil fuels. However, several factors are currently impeding this process, ranging from insufficient charging infrastructure, battery capacity, and long queueing, and charging times, to psychological factors. On top of range anxiety, the frustration of the EV drivers is further fueled by the uncertainty of finding an available charging point on their route. To address this issue, we propose a solution that enables EV drivers to make charging reservations for the upcoming days, especially when planning a longer trip. Our algorithm Utilizes geolocation technology to track customer locations, enabling predictive analytics to optimize charging station placement. The system also provides real-time information on the availability of charging slots at each station, allowing users to check slot availability and book a slot in advance. By empowering EV users with the ability to conveniently find nearby charging stations and reserve charging slots tailored to their vehicle's requirements, this solution aims to promote the adoption of electric vehicles alleviate range anxiety among EV drivers.

The widespread adoption of electromobility constitutes one of the measures designed to reduce air pollution caused by traditional fossil fuels. However, several factors are currently impeding this process, ranging from insufficient charging infrastructure, battery capacity, and long queueing and charging times, to psychological factors. On top of range anxiety, the frustration of the EV drivers is further fuelled by the uncertainty of finding an available charging point on their route. To address this issue, we propose a solution that bypasses the limitations of the “reserve now” function of the OCPP standard, enabling drivers to make charging reservations for the upcoming days, especially when planning a longer trip. We created an algorithm that generates reservation intervals based on the charging station’s reservation and transaction history. Subsequently, we ran a series of test cases that yielded promising results, with no overlapping reservations and the occupation of several stations without queues, assuring, thus, a proper distribution of the available energy resources, while increasing end-user satisfaction. Our solution is independent from the OCPP reservation method; therefore, the authentication and reservation processes performed by the proposed algorithm run only through the central system, authorizing only the creator of the reservation to start the charging transaction.

Solar Energy (SE) plays a crucial role in charging Electric Vehicles (EVs), providing a sustainable and renewable source of power. This explores the significance of solar energy in charging EVs, highlighting its environmental impact, economic benefits, and technological advancements. However, solar energy could face a limitation of intermittency due to the changeable weather throughout the year and the speed of charging the EVs. The integrated technology in charging EVs represents a crucial step toward sustainable transportation. By reducing emissions, offering economic benefits, and leveraging technological advancements, solar-powered EV charging contributes to a cleaner and more energy-efficient future.
