N2 - Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) expansion is accelerating rapidly due to their massive contribution for reducing fossil fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. However, to fulfil the charging requirements of millions of PEVs from the grid would overload the grid and introduce technical, environmental and economic burden on power sector. This study proposes and thermodynamically assesses a grid-independent and stand-alone multigeneration PEV charging station to fast charge 50 number of PEVs per day. The system consists of a hybrid solar and wind sub-systems with battery, hydrogen and ammonia storage units. Considering the site-specific conditions of State of Qatar, the system performance as well as energy and exergy efficiencies are investigated through parametric studies performed in Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software. The integrated energy system for PEV charging station produces almost 270 kW power from both wind turbine and PV power plant. In addition, the fuel cells, running on hydrogen and ammonia, generate almost 10 kW power for sustaining the operations. The energy and exergy efficiencies for the integrated system are found to be about 16.9% and 17.6%, respectively.
