Abstract This work is targeted to design an economical and self-reliant solar-powered battery charging scheme for light electric vehicles (LEV’s). The single-ended primary inductance converter (SEPIC) is utilized to enhance the performance of solar power and battery charging at various solar irradiances. Various unique attributes of a SEPIC converter offer the effective charging arrangement for a self-reliant off-board charging system. Further, the continuous conduction mode (CCM) function of the converter minimizes the elementary stress and keeps to maintain the minimum ripples in solar output parameters. A novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach executed in the designed system requires only the battery current to track the maximum power point (MPP) at various weather situations. Both the simulated and real-time behaviors of the developed scheme are examined utilizing a battery pack of 24 V and 100 Ah ratings. These responses verify the appropriateness of the designed system for an efficient off-board charging system for LEV’s.

Battery charging is the most substantial issue in battery management systems, and the intelligent charger can provide stable and reliable energy conversion to electric vehicles. So the research of high power intelligent battery charger becomes very important. This paper introduces the main concept of battery charging of an electric vehicle, and studies the working principle and hardware scheme of an intelligent charging system, and researches the material performance. And based on research results, we will propose desirable characteristics of charger for public use.


The design and analysis of higher efficiency non isolated DC-DC converter for Electric Vehicles is presented. A Battery Charging System (BCS) plays a key role in achieving fast charging and higher efficiency. The BCS integrates acascaded DC-DC converter and a bidirectional PWM converter. In order to achieve more reliability and stiff voltage, aCascaded buckboost converter which is partitioned with the help of a capacitor is integratedand to achieve higher efficiency with less number of switches, a bidirectional PWM converter used There are various PWM techniques, among them hysteresis and sinusoidal pwm technique are used. The output voltage obtained after both the operations (boost and buck) is given to the battery or load. Simulation is done in MATLAB and the results are analyzed with PI controller and without PI controller in this paper.

Swap charging (SC) technology offers the possibility of swapping the batteries of electric vehicles (EVs), providing a perfect solution for achieving a long-distance freeway trip. Based on SC technology, a shared SC system (SSCS) concept is proposed to overcome the difficulties in optimal swap battery strategies for a large number of EVs with charging requests and to consider the variance in the battery charging rate simultaneously. To realize the optimal SSCS design, a binary integer programming model is developed to balance the tradeoff between the detour travel cost and the total battery recharge cost in the SSCS. The proposed method is verified with a numerical example of the freeway system in Guangdong Province, China, and can obtain an exact solution using off-the-shelf commercial solvers (e.g., Gurobi).
