Fast charging of drone stations using off-grid solar-powered containers

4 FAQs about [Fast charging of drone stations using off-grid solar-powered containers]

How much power does a UAV use per charge stop?

Under this strategy, UAV charging power levels per charge stop vary greatly, 0.03–0.15 kW per vehicle, depending on the trajectory and SoC, but are still in line with that of current off-shelf UAV technology. Fig. 7.

What is ''off-grid optimized'' recharging?

The second strategy is ‘off-grid optimized’, which demonstrates the extent to which the number of charging stations can be reduced by delaying the en-route recharging per UAV to the extent possible (maximum >20% SoC) to combine more recharging sessions per station as compared to requiring extra charging stations.

Are UAVs fully charged when they leave the charging station?

UAVs are assumed fully charged when they leave the charging station (SoC=100%). The UAV''s flight range is estimated according to the UAV 3D minimal energy trajectory model. As the energy consumption rate varies for loaded and unloaded UAVs, two different flight scenarios are implemented.

Can building-integrated photovoltaics and UAV recharging stations reduce energy consumption?

Upgrading these building envelopes by deploying building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) and allocating UAV recharging stations on their roofs would represent a dual green solution. The environmental benefits of reducing energy consumption in upgraded buildings are coupled with generating clean electricity required for the UAV charging functions.
