Abstract

A key factor in promoting sustainable economies, industries, and society is the use of electric vehicles (EVs). They are an important step toward a greener future since they reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and encourage energy independence. The demand for charging stations (CSs) will undoubtedly rise as the global EV market continues to grow over the next few decades, requiring significant investments from both public and private players. By creating a cutting-edge AI model, this work tackles the crucial problems of EVs range prediction and charging optimization decisions. The contributions are summarized as the below: 1. Developed AI models to predict estimated range for EVs without explicitly stating the use of data. 2. Implemented a binary decision-making process to determine the necessity of EV charging, enhancing energy management strategies and mitigating range anxiety. 3. Proposed a comprehensive solution incorporating vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and grid- to-vehicle (G2V) energy sharing, selecting optimal charging stations (CS1, CS2) or vehicles (V2, V3) based on factors like waiting time, distance, and energy provision. 4. Curated a dataset highlighting essential data variables crucial for optimizing AI models for V2V energy sharing, facilitating the development of sustainable transportation solutions. The technology, when integrated into the V2V framework, creates a strong foundation for self-governing energy and enables effective energy sharing between EVs. These developments have important ramifications for encouraging the use of EVs, improving customer satisfaction, and furthering sustainable transportation programs
