A novel photovoltaic PV-powered battery charging scheme for electric vehicles

Abstract

The paper presents a novel photo-voltaic PV powered battery charging station. The flexible scheme developed by the first Author is controlled by a FACTS-based Green Plug-Filter Compensator GPFC to ensure efficient utilization and DC-common bus stabilization. The multi-regulator multi-loop error driven modified PID-controller ensures efficient fast charging and full DC bus stabilization under load excursions and fault condition.
