A Research Based Review on Power Quality Improvement Using EVs with Reference to Smart Grids

The growing concern over environmental issues has prompted governments of all nations are bringing policies to switch from traditional fossil fuel vehicles to Electric Vehicles (EVs), that generate fewer emissions. However, the surge in EVs that can connect to the grid has brought about several challenges due to their grid-to-vehicle (G2V) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) effectiveness. Electrical grids that are heavily affected by EVs face considerable power quality issues. Therefore, this study seeks to examine and evaluate the challenges posedby EVs to electrical networks. It will discuss the current and future stateof EVs, recent research in the field, and explore issues associated with connecting EVs to the electrical grid. The study will also suggest possible solutions to address these challenges. The findings of this study can assist in understanding the challenges and opportunities associated with the increased adoption of EVs and in creating policies and strategies to support their integration into the electrical grid.
