Integrating photovoltaic (PV) technology into electric vehicles (EVs) promises an environmentally friendly transportation solution by increasing the energy efficiency of vehicles. On the other hand, the limited integration area of the vehicle causes PVs to have relatively lower power output.
This paper aims to address the integration of solar PV panels into electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure addresses several critical needs by enhancing sustainability and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
By leveraging solar energy generation from the PV rooftops and incorporating vehicle-to-grid capabilities, electric vehicles can actively contribute to grid stability and resilience, while also optimizing energy utilization and reducing reliance on traditional power sources.
There are also PHEV-type vehicles such as the Ford C-MAX Solar Energi and 2017 Toyota Prius Prime, and HEV-type vehicles such as the Hyundai Sonata, which use the PV panel as a source of support for the main propulsion system.
Analysing these examples helps identify necessary adaptations for the seamless integration of solar-powered vehicles into energy systems. A notable example of solar EV integration is the 2019 collaboration among Toyota, Sharp and NEDO, which tested a Prius PHV equipped with high efficiency PV panels.
Vehicle-integrated PVs (VIPVs) systems integrate specialized solar cells into the surfaces of vehicles, such as the roof and doors, to capture sunlight and convert it into electrical energy.
