Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly Wind Energy Contribution for Charging Electric Vehicles

Abstract

Wind Energy (WE) as a kinetic energy has the ability to power residential and commercial loads through wind turbines to charge Electric Vehicles (EVs) and run home appliances. Charging Electric Vehicles (CEVs) using WE is a sustainable and environmentally friendly solution to reduce carbon emissions in the transportation sector. However, WE face with intermittency, grid Integration, and Land and Resource Constraints. The aforementioned limitations can be addressed by integrating energy storage. By harnessing the power of Wind Turbines (WTs), Renewable Energy (RE) can be generated and utilized to charge electric vehicles. The process involves installing WTs either onshore or offshore to capture the kinetic energy of the wind and convert it into electricity. This electricity can then be fed into the grid or stored in batteries for later use. To CEV, specialized charging stations equipped with charging infrastructure are set up. These stations are connected to the renewable energy grid, allowing EVs to access clean and green energy for charging purposes. By utilizing WE to CEV, we can significantly reduce the reliance on fossil fuels and lower greenhouse gas emissions. It supports the transition towards a more sustainable transportation system, ultimately contributing to a greener future.
