Abstract
Electric vehicles primarily run on stored electrical energy, which needs to be replenished at regular intervals of time. Commercially, EVs are charged at charging stations, however they can be charged anywhere whether it be at home, public charging stations or even at workplaces. The commercial charging stations are highly costly and require huge setup. The main aim of this paper is to enable charging at any commercial and non-commercial establishment and optimize the cost of charging and grid usage by using an IOT (Internet of Things) device for bill generation and grid usage analysis.The charge enabling process is based on a QR based activation of the device. The user scans the QR code and registers his details, this enables the charge cycle. The bill is generated based on the start time and the end time of the charge cycle and the energy consumed in that cycle and a text message is sent to the consumer. The effect of charging load is also analyzed and hence an appropriate action is taken to optimize the peak load or demand.
Keywords: Internet of Things (IoT), Electric Vehicles (EVs), Smart Energymeter, QR-based activation
