This paper represents as Global warming has led to the massive adoption of electrical Vehicles(EVs) which appear to be the simplest replacement to IC engines. Due to increased number of EVs within the road, charging of the vehicles with conventional fuel based grid isn't economical and efficient. Thus, a renewable energy based charging station finds immense potential and control for electric vehicle charging. An electric vehicle charging station integrating solar power and a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is designed for the current scenario. For uninterrupted power within the charging station a further grid support is additionally considered without becoming an additional burden to the grid. An efficient design of charging station with MPPT, PID and current control strategy is developed for the optimal power management between solar, BESS, grid with the EVs within the charging station. By taking dynamic charging needs of EVs, the planning of charging station is formulated and validated in MATLAB/Simulink.

This paper introduces a novel design of an electric vehicle (EV) fast charging station, consisting of a battery energy storage system (BESS) with reconfigurable cell topology. The BESS comprises two battery strings that decouple the power flow between EV and grid, to enable charging powers above the grid capacity. The reconfigurable design is achieved by equipping the battery cells with semiconductor switches and serves two main purposes. First, it aims at solving cell unbalance issues to increase safety, reliability, and lifetime of the battery. Second, it enables the BESS to actively control the EV charging process by changing its cell configuration in a real-time fashion, making a DC-DC converter redundant. The paper presents a modelling approach that captures the reconfigurable design including the controlling algorithm used for cell engagement. The simulation results show that the BESS is able to fulfil the EV request with sufficient accuracy for most of the fast charging process. However, the switching of cells leads to variations in the charging current that can potentially exceed the tolerance band defined in IEC61851-23. Therefore, complementary measures are suggested to achieve a suitable current control during all phases of the charging process. The estimated BESS efficiency during the EV fast charging process is 93.3%. The losses caused by the reconfigurable design amount to 1.2% of the provided energy. It is demonstrated that the proposed design has a competitive efficiency compared to a battery buffered fast charging station with DC-DC converter.
