Abstract

India is facing a severe power crisis due to environmental issues caused by greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. To address this, our study aimed to develop a holistic approach to shift from fossil fuels to electric vehicles (EVs) powered by renewable energy sources. We used the grid-to-vehicle (V2G) method and created an efficient electric vehicle charging system with Simulink, integrating Level 2 rapid charging. Our design aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation and energy sectors. Our results showed a 10-kilowatt alternating current power output at 240 volts with a 50-kilowatt-hour electric vehicle battery rating. The analysis revealed minimal overshoot and stable output parameters after implementing a boost converter and proportional-integral controller. The study demonstrated the feasibility of incorporating sustainable energy sources into the electrical grid for EV charging, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 70% compared to conventional fossil fuel-based transportation systems. The findings highlight the importance of adopting electric vehicles and renewable energy for addressing climate change, with significant implications for the energy industry.
