The current low PV price is a game changer. As opposed to the 1980s, electric vehicles today have the potential to act as important new electricity consumers. With the now very low prices for photovoltaic (PV) installations and solar cells, new PV and EV combinations are emerging. The DC/AC production with PV and the AC/DC-charging of EV battery with solar carports can be viewed as an established technique and an amazing economic advantage. Yet, with the low price even for highly efficient solar cells (>20% efficiency), the EV surface itself today becomes an interesting infrastructure for energy production with solar cells. The research activities of the Laboratory for Photovoltaic Systems (PV LAB) at Bern University of Applied Sciences (BFH) in Burgdorf-Switzerland presented here seeks to quantify both infrastructure approaches (electric vehicle charging station, solar cells on e-vehicle). The project is part of the IEA Technical Collaboration Program (TCP) “Photovoltaic Power Systems PVPS” Task 17 “PV and Transportation”.
