Abstract

The worldwide demand for transportation systems is driven by increasing passenger and freight traffic, which is projected to double by 2050. While such growth in the transport sector is a sign of social and economic development, its repercussions on energy consumption and environmental emissions cannot be overlooked. Developments in the transportation industry must follow the trajectory of emerging energy generation systems. The UNSDG 7 (United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 7) encourages “Affordable and Clean Energy”. Accordingly, there is a worldwide move towards electrification of transportation systems, the energy being derived from multiple non-renewable and renewable sources. This paper analyses the design and performance analysis of Denmark's hybrid energy-based EVCS (Electric Vehicle Charging Station). The proposed EVCS is mathematically modelled. The HOMER software is used to design and analyse the performance of EVCS, powered by PV, wind turbines, diesel generators, and storage batteries, at four locations in Denmark - Aalborg, Middelgrunden, Aarhus, and Hirtshals. System modelling and analysis were performed to analyse and compare the techno-economic performance parameters. In addition, CO2 emissions and fuel consumption at the four locations were also compared. Sensitivity analysis was carried out at Aalborg to understand the uncertainty effect on the performance of the EVCS.
