Paper Title: PBCharge: Pure Chain-Based Smart Charging Framework for Electric Vehicles
Conference Name: Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences (KICS Winter 2024) Conference
Abstract: In attempts to utilize green-energy, various frameworks and paradigms are being studied and proposed particularly for electric vehicle systems. This paper introduces PBCharge, a decentralized Smart Charging System for Electric Vehicles (EVs) utilizing blockchain technology, PureChain. The aim is to establish a decentralized charging infrastructure that incentivizes EV owners for participating by providing a system which has dynamic charging as well as rewarding users tokens when performing specific charging set-ups. Participants in this system include EV Owners, the Smart Charging System (SCS), and the Blockchain. Through smart contract functions, the SCS dynamically adjusts charging rates, with token rewards exclusively granted for either off-peak charging, or the use of renewable energy, or both conditions. Future works aim to include vehicle-to-grid capabilities in the smart charging system functions.
