Abstract

As an environmentally benign and sustainable alternative to conventional internal combustion engine cars, electric vehicles (EVs) have the potential to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions and rely less on fossil fuels. The widespread use of EVs is, however, dependent on the availability and development of an effective infrastructure for charging them. This study paper offers a thorough analysis of electric car charging methods with the goal of providing a comprehensive understanding of the state of EV charging technology in the country now, as well as challenging circumstances and prospective future developments. This study explores the key technical concerns around EV charging, such as power output, voltage, current, and connector specifications. Additionally, the assessment tackles significant obstacles impeding the widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), such as range anxiety, grid connectivity, and the requirement for standardisation.
