Abstract

This paper presents a sustainable electric vehicle (EV) charging system that operates in three modes of operation to maximize the yield of photovoltaic (PV) system. The design and analysis of the EV charging system is customized based on the operational or office hours of a corporation. The proposed system incorporates a battery pack capable of providing at least one day of autonomy to overcome the weather conditions during early morning, shading times, or cloudy days. In this study, the perturb and observe (PO) algorithm is modified and used to operate the PV system at maximum power point (MPP) when charging either the EV or the storage battery. The load current, in both cases, is regulated using proportional integral (PI) controllers and pulse width modulation (PWM) switching of DC-DC converter. The proposed system operation is switched between three modes (boost operation for direct charging of EV and discharging of storage battery, and buck operation for charging of storage battery) by a simple event-driven finite state machine (FSM). Simulation results showed excellent tracking behavior of the proposed system when supplying a 5 kW load with variation in solar irradiance between 1000 and 400 W/m2, battery state of charge (SOC) between 40% and 100%, and temperature between 15 to 39 ℃.
