Abstract

The problem of reducing greenhouse gas emissions is relevant not only for manufacturing enterprises, motor transport, but also for agriculture. Decarbonization of the industry includes the conversion of tractors and agricultural machinery to traction electric drive, but creates a number of issues, including with charging infrastructure. Mobile electric charging stations with energy storage devices can be one of the ways to solve the shortage of electricity. Aim of the review is to find solutions for alternative methods of charging infrastructure development that can be applied in the agricultural sector.

During the research, the method of analyzing the existing problems of the charging station infrastructure development was used and methods for their solution were proposed. A new direction for the development of charging infrastructure and methods for solving problems of uneven loading of electric grids are proposed. Results. The analysis of designs of tractors with electric drive, mobile electric charging stations and electric charging connectors is carried out. The relevance of using energy storage devices in order to reduce dependence on electric grids to increase mobility and range of electric transport is indicated.

The application of the proposed solutions in the transport infrastructure will make it more convenient to operate both agricultural and road electric vehicles and will help accelerate the development of electric vehicles. The application of the proposed solutions in power grids will reduce peak local loads and will contribute to a more even distribution of energy and load on generating capacities.
