<br/><br/> Solar-powered charging infrastructure for EVs is a rapidly evolving field. With the recent increase in the number of EVs on the roads, there is a need for a comprehensive description of the evolving charging infrastructure, particularly SPCS. The authors attempt to give readers information on the existing solar-powered charging infrastructure, while discussing its advantages, mainly in light of sustainable development; air quality improvement, and reduced dependence on fossil fuels
