Abstract
The rapid progress of electric vehicles (EVs) requires smart, sustainable EV-charging infrastructure, energy trading framework deployment, and integration of smart grids. However, existing centralized EV frameworks face challenges such as, transparent energy pricing, single point of failures, limited consumer access, fragmented battery health records, and defective insurance claim procedure. To overcome these issues, we propose a smart and sustainable consumer-centric EV charging infrastructure using Hyperledger Fabric and integrated with smart contracts to ensure secure, immutable decentralized transaction management. Deployed smart contracts automates EV charging appointments, verifies battery swapping, settle payment and insurance claims. Additionally, framework maintains consumer-driven EV charging, energy trading transactions, and interoperable charging stations in decentralized energy ecosystem. These integrations validate the practical deployment of blockchain technology in EV charging stations to enable a smart, sustainable EV charging and energy trading infrastructure for next-generation e-mobility systems.
