Abstract

With an increasing demand for a sustainable environment, there has been a rapid shift from internal combustion engines (ICEs) to battery-powered engines (BPEs), which are installed in electric vehicles (EVs). With the increasing need and demand for electric vehicles (EVs), the need for charging stations (CS) is also increasing. However, the paradigm shift is slow regarding CSs because of their high installation costs. Thus, there is still the non-ubiquity of CSs in cities, highways, and remote areas, which causes EV users to experience range anxiety. In this context, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) charging could be a promising solution recently gaining prominence. In this paper, we have proposed the incentive-based socially connected V2V charging model for EVs where the excess charge of EVs acts as an alternate charging option for other EVs. We have used the maximum bipartite matching algorithm to map the EVs experiencing range anxiety with available CSs and other EVs with surplus charge. The results of our model have shown the trend that the number of EV users who were experiencing range anxiety is less than the only CS-dependent users. Also, the trend of results indicates that there could be a significant reduction of load on the power grid in that particular area, especially during peak hours.
