Abstract
The global call for green energy and to reduce the dependency on fossil fuel for public transportation requires new alternative energy. As a solution to this problem, the
electrification of vehicles has replaced internal combustion engines and thus has the potential to reduce CO2 emissions. Lower operating costs and better fuel economy with reduced carbon emissions are the reasons for higher preference of electric vehicles (EVs). Additionally, high penetration of EVs can facilitate grid integration and participate in load balancing and revenue generation. However, the development of EVs is facing many barriers such as immature battery technology, scarce charging infrastructure, standards, and regulations
