Abstract

This paper presents an overview of issues related to noise generation in electric vehicle (EV) charging systems. It discusses the requirements for noise reduction in locations where charging stations are most commonly installed. The primary sources of noise in EV charging stations are identified, considering their design and configuration. The results of acoustic tests for specific noise sources and entire charging stations are presented, including measurements of sound pressure level (SPL), acoustic imaging, and the generated acoustic spectrum. The paper also describes noise reduction methods and proposes solutions aimed at minimizing the noise generated by charging infrastructure. Additionally, the results of tests illustrating the effectiveness of these methods are presented.
