The rapid growth of electric vehicle (EV) adoption has created significant challenges for power grid management and charging infrastructure planning. Accurate forecasting of EV charging demand is therefore essential to ensure reliable electricity supply and effective station deployment. This study proposes a novel hybrid forecasting framework that combines autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) with deep neural networks (DNN) through a residual learning strategy. In this approach, ARIMA models the linear temporal patterns, while DNN captures the nonlinear residuals, resulting in improved efficiency and predictive accuracy. The proposed hybrid model is one of the first applications of the residual learning approach for EV demand forecasting in Indonesia. Experimental evaluation using real-world daily consumption data shows that the hybrid method achieved the highest prediction accuracy of 98.22%, consistently outperforming single-model baselines. Beyond technical performance, the model can support stakeholders in planning charging infrastructure and help maintain grid stability in rapidly growing EV ecosystems.
