        abstract = {The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has emphasized the need for sustainable and efficient charging infrastructure. High energy usage and higher operating expenses are two consequences of traditional grid-powered charging stations. This study presents a solar-powered external charging setup for electric vehicle batteries, offering a renewable and eco-friendly energy solution. To regulate voltage, the architecture integrates a SEPIC converter, while a bidirectional, multi-phase DC-DC converter facilitates effective power flow between the solar array, auxiliary battery, and EV battery pack. Depending on solar irradiance conditions, the system functions through three operational modes, supporting seamless charging and smart energy distribution. MATLAB/Simulink simulations verify the system’s effectiveness in stabilizing voltage, managing power flow, and enhancing overall efficiency. The findings highlight the potential of solar-powered Standalone EV charging unit in reducing grid dependency and promoting clean energy integration for EVs.},
