Electric vehicles are shaping the transport of the future and they finally are sustainable and more environmentally friendly key technologies that provide a car experience. Traditional to combustion engines Unlike electric vehicles, electric vehicles are powered by electricity and zero emissions These vehicles, which are an environmentally friendly option in principle, also provide a quiet and fast driving experience thanks to their powerful batteries and electric motors.

The number of electric vehicles on the streets of Türkiye is increasing day by day. This is good news. However, these tools their energies Let’s see how it’s done.

When you come home at the end of the day, to the power station You have to charge it with electricity.

However, the amount of electricity required to charge a single vehicle is almost one month of electricity consumption a lot of. In this case, is it possible that the capacity of the electricity grids of homes and cities is sufficient in a situation where we assume that everyone will drive electrically in the future?

The electrical installations of the homes may be insufficient to charge an electric vehicle.

especially at your house electrical installation If it’s old, charging an electric vehicle can overload the system. Load balancing function Chargers can avoid power interruptions by distributing this load evenly between the electric vehicle and household appliances.

Inside wiring harnesses It is usually single phase. To charge an electric car, wiring harness You may also need to move it to a three-phase system that can charge 22kW.

The amount of energy required to fully charge an electric car can be quite high. Turkey’s current electricity supply capacity is large It is impossible to comply with the use of electric vehicles.

today in Turkey a total of 14 million 269 thousand 352 cars registered in traffic consists. Let’s say all of these vehicles have been converted to electric vehicles, for example they are all Togg T10X models.

It takes 88.5 kW of energy to fill each vehicle’s battery, the amount of energy needed for 14 million 269 thousand 352 vehicles 1,262,837,652 megawatts resources.

Turkey all renewable and fossil energy sources The amount of energy that power plants and power plants together can produce in one go is for the period 2021-2025. 115,722 megawatts is listed as.

Since it includes the electricity we use for all our daily needs in our homes and workplaces, all electricity produced Even in a scenario where we only use electric vehicles, we only achieve 1/10 of the energy required.

If electric vehicles become too common, energy companies will certainly need to strengthen their infrastructure.

network capacity and to meet growing demand. renewable energysources Using more is a good option. Because solar and wind energy are unlimited resources. Energy companies can strengthen their electricity supply by using more of these sources.

Smart grid technologies can also be used to manage and evenly distribute electricity demand. These technologies demand response tariffs, grid management systems and energy storage systems In other words, by determining how much energy to use per household, the planned distributions can be made accordingly.

Norway is a country that has successfully created the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. This is not the case in Turkey.

One of the world’s successful examples of the charging infrastructure required for electric vehicles. NorwayLet’s see. The electricity grid of the country is largely hydroelectric power plants based on renewable energy sources. This facilitates the realization of a sustainable charging infrastructure for electric vehicles.

However TurkishThe country’s electricity network has some limitations and the use of renewable energy sources is not as widespread as in Norway. Infrastructure deficiencies and Insufficient use of renewable energy sourcesindicates a problematic situation for electric vehicles.

Before electric vehicles start running from Edirne to Ardahan, Turkey needs to develop its electricity infrastructure.

The good news is in electricity networks in Turkey. capacity increases and significant progress is being made. More use of renewable energy sources and investments in infrastructure It ensures a stronger electricity network.

However, one should not forget that the network could remain heavily loaded if electric vehicles become widespread. The increasing demand for electric vehicles can put pressure on even advanced infrastructure reliability of the electricity supply problems can arise.

For this reason, it is believed that advances in Turkey’s electricity grid could one day be widely used in electric vehicles. developing and planning is very important.
