Blockchain-based Decentralized Application for Electric Vehicle Scheduling at Charging Station

Published:27 April 2024Publication History

ABSTRACT

The penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) in the energy market has become a immersive paradigm for facilitating greener environment by mitigating the disadvantages of the fossil-fuel vehicles. Nevertheless, it becomes critical for charging station (CS) to handle huge number of EVs further leading to the uncoordinated and inefficient charging. Moreover, none of the authors have considered the possible EV charging scenarios for allocation at the CS. Thus, we have designed an Ethereum blockchain-based decentralized application for EV charging at the CS along with the energy trading between prosumer and consumer EVs. Further, we have formulated charging scenarios based on the energy demand and type of EV (emergency and high authority). We have deployed the smart contract in Remix Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and further built a decentralized application using Web3 to made charging allocation accessible to the EVs. Finally, the simulation results of the proposed smart contract for the application is evaluated in terms of gas consumption and cost analysis with the help of deployed smart contract in the Remix IDE.
