An efficient hybrid approach based design of photovoltaic fed grid integrated wireless electric vehicle battery charger

Abstract

AbstractThis article proposes a Fire Hawk Optimizer (FHO) technique for photovoltaic fed grid connected wireless electric vehicle battery‐charger. The optimization issues are solved by the FHO across a countless endless exploring space. The main aim of the proposed technique is to enhance the efficiency, reduce energy demand, improve communication amid the receiver and transmitter sides of electric vehicle (EV) and reduce range anxiety. A photovoltaic (PV) panel, an energy storage unit (ESU), and electric vehicles are part of the proposed topology. Each unit is separately regulated, and the converter of energy storage unit uses a voltage‐regulation mechanism to guarantee that the direct current bus voltage is kept in nominal‐level when operating in various circumstances. An essential requirement for the quick commercialization of EVs is the ability to charge them. Moreover, the charging‐station smartly uses grid power in the event that the battery storage is empty and the generation of solar photovoltaic array is not available. The inverter is tuned using the proposed technique. The FHO method is done in MATLAB software and it evaluated their performance. The proposed methodology provides higher efficiency of 91% than the existing techniques.
