In this project, we present a solar-based bi-directional EV charger that utilizes a combination of solar energy and lead-acid batteries to power the vehicle, along with a V2H system that allows the EV battery to discharge back into the grid. . The capacity of EV batteries, coupled with their charging infrastructure, offers the added advantage of supplying flexible demand capacity and providing demand response benefits to the power grid, which is essential as overall demand increases. The first mode of operation is “solar-powered electric vehicle charging” in which the vehicle is charged with solar energy.
