Cloud-Based Ev Charging Station Locator And Booking System

The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has significantly increased the demand for efficient and intelligent The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has increased the demand for efficient and intelligent charging infrastructure, yet existing systems often lack real-time availability information and reservation capabilities, leading to long waiting times and inefficient utilization of charging stations. This paper presents the design and implementation of a cloud-based EV charging station locator and booking system that enables users to find nearby charging stations, check real-time slot availability, and reserve charging slots in advance through a web-based platform. The proposed system integrates location-based services, cloud computing, and a scheduling mechanism to optimize charging station selection based on distance and availability. It also provides additional features such as reminder notifications before the scheduled charging time and navigation support to guide users to the selected station. An admin panel is included to manage users, monitor bookings, and dynamically control slot availability. The system demonstrates improved performance in terms of reduced waiting time, enhanced user convenience, and better utilization of charging infrastructure, making it a practical and scalable solution for modern EV charging systems.
