The transition to sustainable transportation has fueled the need for innovative electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions. Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) systems have emerged as a promising technology that combines renewable energy generation with the infra‐structure of buildings. This paper comprehensively reviews the BIPV system for EV charging, focusing on its technology, application, and performance. The review identifies the gaps in the existing literature, emphasizing the need for a thorough examination of BIPV systems in the context of EV charging. A detailed review of BIPV technology and its application in EV charging is presented, covering aspects such as the generation of solar cell technology, BIPV system installation, design options and influencing factors. Furthermore, the review examines the performance of BIPV systems for EV charging, focusing on energy, economic, and environmental parameters and their comparison with previous studies. Additionally, the paper explores current trends in energy management for BIPV and EV charging, highlighting the need for effective integration and recommending strategies to optimize energy utilization. Combining BIPV with EV charging provides a promising approach to power EV chargers, enhances building energy efficiency, optimizes the building space, reduces energy losses, and decreases grid dependence. Utilizing BIPV‐generated electricity for EV charging provides electricity and fuel savings, offers financial incentives, and increases the market value of the building infrastructure. It significantly lowers greenhouse gas emissions associated with grid and vehicle emissions. It creates a closed‐loop circular economic system where energy is produced, consumed, and stored within the building. The paper underscores the importance of effective integration between Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) and Electric Vehicle (EV) charging, emphasizing the necessity of innovative grid technologies, energy storage solutions, and demand‐response energy management strategies to overcome diverse challenges. Overall, the study contributes to the knowledge of BIPV systems for EV charging by presenting practical energy management, effectiveness and sustainability implications. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers working towards sustainable transportation and energy systems.

“…Due to this reason, it is not suitable for shielded or low-diffused light areas. These panels are much more expensive due to high manufacturing cost, although they have maximum efficiency and long lifetimes [92], indirect bandgap and absorb light less efficiently [93]. This type of cell is the most efficient and its usage is almost 80 % in the global market.…”

“…Polycrystalline panels have lower prices and efficiency (about 12-16%) compared to Mono-SI panels and lower spatial efficiency. Thin-film solar panels are the cheapest and least efficient (about 6-8%) compared to the others [16]. Thus, Mono-SI and Poly-SI solar panels are suggested for the reliable and safe operation of the hybrid photovoltaic-battery system in remote areas.…”

A Global Dynamic Harmony Search for Optimization of a Hybrid Photovoltaic-Battery Scheme: Impact of Type of Solar Panels

et al. 2021

The type of solar panels has a great impact on the optimal sizing of a hybrid photovoltaic–battery scheme. The optimization of these schemes based on a powerful optimization approach results in more cost-effective schemes. In this paper, a new global dynamic harmony search method, as an optimization method, is presented for the optimal sizing of a hybrid photovoltaic–battery scheme. The new optimization method is aimed at minimizing the total cost and loss of load supply probability of the scheme at the same time. In this regard, the effect of the type of solar panels on the optimal sizing of the hybrid scheme is investigated. Furthermore, performance optimizations are performed with an original global dynamic harmony search, an original harmony search, and simulated annealing to determine the effectiveness of the suggested optimization method. The effects of the initial costs and efficiency of monocrystalline and polycrystalline solar panels on the optimization of hybrid systems are analyzed. The superiority of the suggested method in terms of time and cost indicators of the hybrid scheme is presented comparing the other algorithm.
