Abstract

Air pollution has become one of the major threats to the world and is mainly due the
vehicular emissions using combustion engines. Hence using electric vehicles have become the
alternative solution to the fossil fuels. With the huge development of EVs and their expected growth in
the upcoming years, recharging of electric vehicles will give many difficulties. A better charging
infrastructure is necessary to meet the increasing requirements. In this project, we introduce a smart
system to recharge electric vehicles suitable to be implemented in both public and private parking
areas. The main idea of our proposed system is the fact that all the parking places should be needed
to be used as a charging point and also to provide facilities to monitor the power consumed by the
charging process. Our device allows the users to obtain details such as price of charging, time used
for charging process, and the availability of a charging point using a mobile application in real time.
Our system is capable of scheduling the charging process by assigning different time periods by the
scheduler. It also allows the users to reserve a particular time slot prior to the time of charging
