The idea of solar power panel seeds up from the need to have electric-fuel stations for electronic cars. But Making up separate stations for electronic vehicles would not only take extra land space but also an extra amount of infrastructure establishment and labor to establish.
We could upgrade conventional gasoline stations to modern solar power panel stations by adding minor adjustments to them with the help of this working model.
The working model for the installation of solar panels on the rooftop of gasoline stations to extract clean solar energy and convert it into electric energy with the help of an inverter. The inverter sends down the electrical energy to the charging station.
I. IDENTIFY, RESEARCH, AND COLLECT IDEA
In recent trends, electric cars\transports are viewed as an alternative to oil-petroleum-based transportation. But one of the main barriers to buying cars is the lack of charging power stations that work as fuel for these cars. Thus, consumers are less interested in buying them.
Many people came up with an idea that an electric power station needs to be established for these cars. Solar energy harnesses the electricity in most gasoline. We could use the same energy for the power charging station.
But, setting up a separate electric charging station as fuel for these cars is time-consuming and it will provide fewer options for these cars to fill up.
II. STUDIES AND FINDINGS
With little modification to petrol-CNG pump could serve as a station for electric cars:
A. Solution:
Setting up solar panels on the rooftop of the station/petrol pump to generate electricity.
The solar cells will generate power, which will store in the batteries. These batteries will transfer energy to inverters.
The inverters will send the electrical energy to the charging station through wires. The charging station will have arrangements of apparatus to charge the vehicle.
B. Units.
· The setup will have a charger like EV-T2G3C-1AC32A-5.0M6.0ESBK01 with a maximum capacity of Maximum Voltage Rating (VAC) 250VAC/30VAC.
· The station will use a 65KW Superfast charging model that could charge up to 80% in half an hour.
The working model is the solution that could encourage people to shift from petrol/diesel transport to electric transport. The ease of availability of electric stations on the same gasoline site will also save land for other purposes.
It would be great to harvest power over a period of time, store in a large battery ready for customers to come along and charge their vehicles. There are some networks that work this way or at least, partly do. None here in the UK but I've heard of something like this in the Netherlands called FastNed.
