Smartcharge

Project abstract
SmartCharge are in the process of developing a solar harvesting electric vehicle (EV) charger. The concept is to combine several existing technologies (EV Charging, power inverters, energy harvesting and battery management) to improve charging in relation to efficiency and the environment. SmartCharge have existing knowledge of EV charging, low power harvesting and battery management. The gaps in SmartCharge's knowledge is photovoltaic (PV) technology and how PV can be harvested. The concept will need to prove that sufficient energy can be extracted from a low density PV situation to power the EV charging protocol. Another element of the concept is to understand how to scale this technology. Once the concept has proven this, SmartCharge can begin to develop a working prototype.
