| description | Abstract This comprehensive review investigates the growing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) as a practical solution for environmental concerns associated with fossil fuel usage in mobility. The increasing demand for EVs underscores the critical importance of establishing efficient, fast-charging infrastructure, especially from the standpoint of the electrical power grid. The review systematically examines the planning strategies and considerations for deploying electric vehicle fast charging stations. It emphasizes their unique dual role as loads and storage units, intricately linked to diverse road and user constraints. Furthermore, the review underscores the significant opportunity surrounding these stations for the integration of distributed renewable energy sources. It thoroughly explores the challenges and opportunities intrinsic to the planning and localization process, providing insights into the complexities associated with these multifaceted stations. Renewable resources, including wind and solar energy, are investigated for their potential in powering these charging stations, with a simultaneous exploration of energy storage systems to minimize environmental impact and boost sustainability. In addition to analyzing planning approaches, the review evaluates existing simulation models and optimization tools employed in designing and operating fast charging stations. The review consolidates key findings and offers recommendations to researchers and grid authorities, addressing critical research gaps arising from the escalating demand for electric vehicle fast-charging infrastructure. This synthesis is a valuable resource for advancing understanding and implementing robust strategies in integrating EVs with the electrical power grid. |
