Abstract

The intention of research is since the beginning of the 20th century, there has been a steadily growing need for transportation, yet the internal combustion engine is quickly becoming obsolete. It is becoming increasingly common for electric vehicles to replace polluting fuels such as gasoline and diesel in favor of cleaner, more efficient fuels. Due to the fact that electric vehicles emit no harmful emissions from their tailpipes, they are a far better alternative for the environment. We are at the threshold of a revolution in electric vehicles. Due to environmental concerns, rising petroleum product prices, and state government policies, the EV market continues to flourish exponentially. In order to meet this growing demand, more and more EVCS power stations are being installed. As there are extra electric vehicles on the road, there are further electric-charging stations on the electrical grid. The prime objectives of this research paper are to study of negative effect of excessive rise in temperature on resistance of cable, harmonics on resistance of cable, power loss, temperature, expected useful life, harmonics derating factor (HDF). EV charging stations use power semiconductor converters that take non-sinusoidal current from the power source, causing harmonics to occur in the power distribution network, lead to in lower power quality. Due to this, EV integration could impact the current electrical power distribution system's service life, particularly those components like power cables that are crucial to the distribution system's operation. The influence of EV charging stations on distribution networks, including the resulting power loss, temperature, capacity loss, and shortened service life, is simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK in this research paper. It also offers several solutions for reducing this impact.
