Abstract

The integration of solar photovoltaic (PV) into the electric vehicle (EV) charging system has been on the rise due to several factors, namely continuous reduction in the price of PV modules, rapid growth in EV and concerns over the effects of greenhouse gases. Despite the numerous review articles published on EV charging using the utility (grid) electrical supply, so far, none has given sufficient emphasis on the PV charger. With the growing interest in this subject, this review paper summarizes and update all the related aspects on PV-EV charging, which include the power converter topologies, charging mechanisms and control for both PV-grid and PV-standalone/hybrid systems. In addition, the future outlook and the challenges that face this technology are highlighted. It is envisaged that the information gathered in this paper will be a valuable one-stop source of information for researchers working in this topic.
