Abstract
The PSC Solar EV Charger Project is exploring the value proposition that `Commuting in electric vehicles charged from PSC´s own distributed solar arrays will be more economical for us and will result in less emissions than commuting in petrol vehicles´. The Solar EV Charger will continually monitor the power and energy production at our own rooftop solar arrays scattered around the globe. The charger will switch the supply to electric vehicles using small charging modules plugging into any domestic 230 V outlet and with wireless internet connectivity. A Solar Charging Master Station will coordinate the power and energy production of the solar arrays with the power and energy supplied to the electric vehicles.
