Feasibility Assessment of Hybrid Solar Photovoltaic-Biogas Generator Based Charging Station: A Case of Easy Bike and Auto Rickshaw Scenario in a Developing Nation

The popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) is increasing day by in the modern world. charging EVs from grid-connected stations causes a considerable power crisis grid. Integrating renewable energy resources (RESs) with conventional sources grid now considered feasible to reduce peak demand and inevitable emission effect. Hence, this paper presents an solution for EV two RESs, namely, solar photovoltaic (PV) biogas. HOMER software utilized analyze potency functionality PV biogas-based stations. proposed system consists system, biogas engine generators, bidirectional converter battery storage. variation different costs, such as net present cost (NPC), initial cost, (COE) systems (3 kW, 4.5 6 9 kW), are analyzed software. kW finally selected NPC, COE $93,530, $19,735, $0.181, respectively, which efficient. system’s lifetime 25 years, where 12 years required overcome remaining 13 will provide financial benefits. study also illustrates effect irradiance, biomass, change load management system. techno–economic analysis shows that scheme can be effective solution. greenhouse gases (GHGs), CO2, CO, SO2, NOX, reduced considerably compared other existing techniques. expected beneficial renewables-based environmental feasibility.
