Abstract

Solar panel-based Public Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (SPKLU) are an innovative solution to support the use of operational electric vehicles. With the increasing demand for environmentally friendly vehicles, the development of efficient and sustainable charging infrastructure has become increasingly important. This design utilizes solar energy as the main source, thereby reducing dependence on fossil energy and reducing carbon emissions. This study involves technical analysis in designing SPKLU equipped with solar panels, inverters, and energy storage systems. Strategic location and modular design are proposed to maximize space efficiency and user accessibility. In addition, system modeling was carried out to determine the optimal charging capacity, taking into account variations in user needs. The results of this research show that the implementation of solar panel-based SPKLU not only meets the need for charging electric vehicles but also supports sustainability and energy efficiency efforts. The daily electrical energy that can be produced is 5562.13 watts. Apart from that, the SPKLU system can charge electrical energy to operational electric vehicle batteries by maintaining a voltage above standard and charging from 37% to 100% in 210 minutes.
