Abstract

Charging electric vehicles (EVs) is of great concern both for future vehicle owners and grid operators, with charging at home being the preferred solution by 90% of owners. In addition, the supplied electricity needs to be clean in order to reduce emissions. This paper presents solutions for charging EVs at home using renewable electricity that fulfils such needs. It discusses: (1) the current landscape; (2) the latest hardware developments in the fields of renewable sources and storage; (3) software optimization for home energy management; (4) residential charging station standards and incentives offered by governments; (5) the evolution towards designing smart homes with low energy consumption from the grid; (6) case studies of particular interest.
