Off-board electric vehicle battery charger using PV array

Project Code :TEPGED140

Objective

The main objective of this project is to provide continuous power supply to charge the off board electric vehicle using PV array.

Abstract

In this project, a photovoltaic (PV) array-based off-board EV battery charging system proposed. Irrespective of solar irradiations, the EV battery is to be charged constantly which is achieved by employing a backup battery bank in addition to the PV array. Using the Sepic converter and three-phase bidirectional DC–DC converter, the proposed system is capable of charging the EV battery during both sunshine hours and non-sunshine hours. During peak sunshine hours, the backup battery gets charged along with the EV battery and during non-sunshine hours, the backup battery supports the charging of EV battery. The proposed charging system is simulated using Matlab/Simulink Software.


Keywords: β€” PV array, Sepic Converter, Bi-Directional DC-DC Converter, EV Battery, and Charge Controller.
