| Abstract |
Transition towards electric vehicles (EV) is the key enabler for fighting against climate change as well as for sustainable future. However, to build more confidence on EV transition, availability of charging infrastructure is key. One of the important criterions for vehicle charging station is to have a stable electricity source that can meet varying charging demand. The paper attempts to explore the eco-system of self-sustainable and quasi-renewable charging infrastructure. This paper outlines a circular economy model for EV charging station (EVCS) using a gas turbine from the Baker Hughes (TM) portfolio. The proposed solution includes Solid Oxide Electrolyzer and a carbon capture unit, integrated to the gas turbine. This integrated system is decarbonized using the hydrogen generated by the electrolysis unit. Proposed solution on EVCS can charge about 1500 EVs in half a day of operation (50% power split). Solution is lucrative and has attractive return on investment. The solution here is having high power density, compared to the actual renewable energy dependent charging stations. The solution is flexible to incorporate Power-to-X conversions. Modular nature of the solution makes it easy to implement in city limits as well as in remote locations, along the highways, where grid availability can be challenging. |
