V2G & G2V based Grid-Connected Bi-Directional Converter: A Novel Study

The utilization of vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) charging in distribution networks has gained popularity in recent years. Relative to uni-directional smart chargers, bi-directional smart chargers offer more versatility, but they are more costly to set up and use. Electric vehicle charging will adversely influence the functioning of the existing network, besides the environmental and financial benefits. Because of their crucial positive impact of zero exhaust emissions, electric vehicles (EVs) have recently gained global attention and were forecasted to see significant acceptance in the transportation sector in most nations. The energy management of diverse renewable energy sources with the Bi-directional converter integration approach is present in this paper. This novel technology connects several power sources, each with a distinct power and voltage condition, in series using a single controller and a serial arrangement of converters. In this approach, despite the random variations that will take place in renewable energy sources, the supply that meets the demand may be maintained without changes. The main innovation is in the construction of the converters, which enables them to be combined into a single producing branch with a single converter controller following the power and voltage demands of the sources.
