Abstract

This paper presents an efficient bidirectional dc-dc converter system for electric vehicle [EV] charging, which is placed between the high-voltage dc bus of photovoltaic [PV] inverter and the EV battery. The system partially alleviates feeder overloading by providing fast charging of EV battery from the PV system. In addition, it reduces the rate of change of inverter output power to a significant low value. The paper also addresses sizing of the charger and energy storage based on the PV system ratings. Analysis suggests that small amounts of energy storage can accomplish large reductions in output power ramp rate. Simulation results are shown for a 10 kW dc–dc charging system, which works on bidirectional, four-phase, zero-voltage-switching converter with high efficiency.
