Wireless Charging - The Future of Electric Vehicle

Wirelesses charging of electric vehicles continue to be one of the most researched areas of wireless power transfer.  By reducing the reliance on fossil fuels, electric vehicles provide a sustainable and environmentally safe means for fuelling our vehicles well into the future. What is Wireless EV Charging? The growing EV market stimulates the demand for more convenient and reliable means to recharge the battery. WPT (Wireless Power Transfer) technique requires no physical contact between vehicle and charging device, therefore overcomes the inconvenience and hazards caused by traditional conductive method. The initial objective is replacing conductive charging method by the novel WPT technology, while maintaining a comparable power level and efficiency. The long-term goal is to dynamically power the moving vehicles on road. This will lead to a much reduced battery pack but extended driving range. Then, the main concerns of EV, namely the high battery price and the range

OCPP - An EV Charging Protocol

Nowadays, the growing CO2 emissions are one of the main international issues. The world is becoming aware that the current climate issues start being critic and that something has to be done. In parallel, Earth starts running out of fossil fuels so alternative energies and alternative ways of producing energy have to be found. Driving electric vehicles would reduce the CO2 emissions and the use of fossil fuels. Types of EV Charging Protocols ·         Open Smart Charging Protocol (OSCP) ·         OpenADR 2.0 ·         Open Charge Point Interface protocol (OCPI v0.4) ·         IEEE 2030.5 (IEEE Adoption of Smart Energy Profile 2.0 / SEP2) ·         Smart charging protocols overlap ·          Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) ·         IEC 61850-90-8 ·         Open Clearing House Protocol (OCHP) ·         Open Charge Point Interface protocol (OCPI 2.1) ·         Open InterCharge Protocol (OICP) ·         eMobility Inter-Operation Protocol(eMIP)
