dc.description.abstractThe ongoing expansion of electric vehicles requires the development of charging infrastructures, preferentially powered by clean energy sources. This study investigates the optimal design of a hybrid photovoltaic/battery/grid system to supply an electric vehicle charging station in Mesra, Mostaganem province, Algeria. The approach integrates 22 years of high-resolution climate data analysis, the development of a representative charging load profile based on three EV models, and a techno-economic optimization performed with HOMER Pro software. The proposed station is dimensioned to satisfy the expected daily charging load, corresponding to about 97 vehicles per day. Results highlight an optimal configuration combining photovoltaic panels, a battery storage system, and grid backup, ensuring full supply reliability. The energy mix achieves a well-balanced contribution between solar generation, battery storage, and grid electricity. Economic analysis demonstrates strong feasibility, characterized by a highly competitive levelized cost of energy and a reasonable initial investment, confirming the economic attractiveness of the proposed system. From an environmental perspective, the system achieves complete elimination of critical air pollutants and a substantial reduction in CO2 emissions. This research provides both a scalable framework for integrating renewable energy into EV charging infrastructures and a strategic contribution to Algeria’s transition toward a cleaner and more resilient energy mix.eng
