Abstract

Hydrogen and electric vehicles (EVs) stand out as two promising technologies with the potential to revolutionize the future of transportation. The adoption of hydrogen and EVs indicates a noteworthy shift in the transportation paradigm, offering the prospect of reshaping this sector. This paper introduces an energy management approach based on fuzzy logic for a charging station that combines fuel cell (FC) and photovoltaic (PV) to power electric vehicles (EVs). The study emphasizes developing and simulating a fuzzy logic-based energy management system tailored for DC microgrid operations, including on-grid and islanded microgrid schemes. The system is designed and simulated in a digital simulation environment. The findings indicate that the fuzzy logic approach significantly enhances the performance of PV and FC-based EV charging stations. This research contributes to developing sustainable and efficient solutions for integrating electric vehicles and hydrogen-powered supply systems.

Keywords: Electric vehicle charging, energy management, fuel cell, fuzzy logic, photovoltaic power systems.
