Dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) systems are becoming increasingly important for on-the-move electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions, to overcome range anxiety and compensate for the consumed energy while the EV is in motion. In this work, a DWPT EV charging system is proposed to be implemented on a straight road stretch such that it provides the moving EV with energy at a rate of 308 Wh/km. This rate is expected to compensate for the vehicle’s average energy consumption and allow for additional energy storage in the EV battery. The proposed charging system operates at an average power transfer efficiency that is higher than 90% and provides good lateral misalignment tolerance up to ±200 mm. Details of the proposed system’s design are presented in this paper, including EV specifications, inductive link and compensation network design and power electronic circuitry.

In order to achieve an efficient wireless Electric Vehicle (EV) charging system in non-ideal practical scenarios, a proper design guideline has been delineated through the simulation, theoretical calculation as well as experimental investigation. It is examined that the wireless power transfer efficiency (WPTE) is invariably affected by the configuration of the charging coils (coil radius & number of turns), coupling to loss ratio, ohmic loss, radiation resistance, operating frequency, magnetic coupling as well as physical air gap between the coils. It is found that there is a certain operating regime at which maximum WPTE can be uphold. The acquired results provide a comprehensive strategic plan that can be used in EV charging system

Wireless charging has become an emerging challenge to reduce the cost of a conventional plug-in charging system in electric vehicles especially for supercapacitors that are utilized for quick charging and low-energy demands. In this article, the design of an efficient wireless power transfer system has been presented using resonant inductive coupling technique for supercapacitor-based electric vehicle. Mathematical analysis, simulation, and experimental implementation of the proposed charging system have been carried out. Simulations of various parts of the systems are carried out in two different software, ANSYS MAXWELL and MATLAB. ANSYS MAXWELL has been used to calculate the various parameters for the transmitter and receiver coils such as self-inductance ( L), mutual inductance ( M), coupling coefficient ( K), and magnetic flux magnitude ( B). MATLAB has been utilized to calculate output power and efficiency of the proposed system using the mathematical relationships of these parameters. The experimental setup is made with supercapacitor banks, electric vehicle, wattmeters, controller, and frequency generator to verify the simulation results. The results show that the proposed technique has better power transfer efficiency of more than 75% and higher power transfer density using a smaller coil size with a bigger gap of 4–24 cm.

Firstly, this paper proposed that charging network for Electric Vehicle (EV) should be consisted of the special motorcade charging system and general charging system mainly, and the emergency charging system auxiliary. This paper put forward the suggestions that EV charging network construction should carry on with EV development synchronization, give full play to advantages of dispersion charging, charging avoiding peak load and charge in valley load, instead of laying a large-scale charge-station network. Secondly, this paper discussed the construction and the management of charging network, focused on the network planning, charging standards, and the role of power enterprises. Finally, the pattern of charging operation and the management is chosen, three kinds of patterns are proposed to different periods and users, the centralism charging management pattern, the dispersion charging and centralism maintenance pattern, as well as the battery renting pattern.

This work presents a novel blockchain-based energy trading mechanism for electric vehicles consisting of day-ahead and real-time markets. In the day-ahead market, electric vehicle users submit their bidding price to participate in the double auction mechanism. Subsequently, the smart match mechanism will be conducted by the charging system operator, to meet both personal interests and social benefits. After clearing the trading result, the charging system operator uploads the trading contract made in the day-ahead market to the blockchain. In the real-time market, the charging system operator checks the trading status and submits the updated trading results to the blockchain. This mechanism encourages participants in the double auction to pursue higher interests, in addition to rationally utilize the energy unmatched in the auction and to achieve the improvement of social welfare. Case studies are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. For buyers and sellers who successfully participate in the day-ahead market, the total profit increase for buyer and seller are 22.79% and 53.54%, respectively, as compared to without energy trading. With consideration of social welfare in the smart match mechanism, the peak load reduces from 182 to 146.5 kW, which is a 19.5% improvement.
