Blockchain and Web-Based electric vehicle charging station application design

Abstract

The rapid development of electric vehicle technology in the last 10 years and the expectation of widespread use of vehicles, along with the fact that vehicles can be charged quickly, safely and at an affordable price, and to obtain information about the battery life of vehicles. Renewable energy powered charging stations participating in smart grids prevent grid fluctuations and provide a more stable grid. Blockchain technology, which is one of the most popular technologies of today, allows vehicles to keep this desired data, as well as to charge them quickly, safely and at an affordable price. In this study, an application that can be made by combining blockchain technology with electric charging stations producing with renewable energy is mentioned. The application saves the previous charging data of the vehicles in blocks with blockchain technology and this data cannot be changed. It can be seen transparently by everyone. In addition, with the web-based application that is aimed to be developed, it is aimed that charging stations will be able to instantly sell the energy they obtain from renewable energies without storing them, and that electric vehicle users will be able to obtain electrical energy at affordable prices. The charging data of the vehicles are kept in blocks, and fast, safe and affordable charging is provided thanks to the web-based application. It allows the energy produced to be used efficiently. At the same time, the charging history of electric vehicles can provide information about battery life.
