Faculty Applied Sciences Department Fundamental Aspects of Materials & Energy Programme Sustainable Energy Technology Date 2012-10-29 Abstract Electric vehicles only become useful in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, if the electricity used to charge their batteries comes from renewable energy sources. This thesis was conducted within the electric mobility framework of the Green Village, the project put forward to test the Green Campus Concept. The objective was to design a Station that charges electric vehicles, using sustainable energy technologies. To achieve an optimal performance of the selected components, a particular layout architecture was suggested. Additionally, a computer model was developed to simulate the Station operation under variant energy generation and consumption inputs, as established by fitted meteorological data and predicted usage patterns. Simulations were run using the Station model and the corresponding results were analyzed. Finally the economic aspects of the project implementation were examined and conclusions were drawn regarding the commercialization of its conceptual attributes.
