Abstract
The rapid growth of the electric vehicle (EV) industry has increased the demand for efficient and reliable fast-charging infrastructure. This paper comprehensively reviews advancements in fast-charging techniques, focusing on DC fast charging, evolving standards, and charging modes. A detailed analysis of on-board and off-board EV chargers is presented, including DC–DC conversion stages with a comparison of isolated and non-isolated topologies. Key control strategies, such as voltage and current regulation and AI-driven approaches, are examined to optimize performance and reliability. Thermal management strategies using advanced sensors to enhance safety and battery longevity are also discussed. This paper highlights recent research contributions and emerging challenges, with insights into infrastructure development, energy storage integration, and policy implications. Notably, projections indicate that global EV sales could rise to 35% by 2030, with fast-charging infrastructure supporting charging times as low as 15 min for 80% battery capacity. Advancements in bidirectional charging and AI-driven optimization are shaping the next generation of smart EV charging stations. This review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and policymakers engaged in EV technology and infrastructure development.
期刊介绍:
Energy Science & Engineering is a peer reviewed, open access journal dedicated to fundamental and applied research on energy and supply and use. Published as a co-operative venture of Wiley and SCI (Society of Chemical Industry), the journal offers authors a fast route to publication and the ability to share their research with the widest possible audience of scientists, professionals and other interested people across the globe. Securing an affordable and low carbon energy supply is a critical challenge of the 21st century and the solutions will require collaboration between scientists and engineers worldwide. This new journal aims to facilitate collaboration and spark innovation in energy research and development. Due to the importance of this topic to society and economic development the journal will give priority to quality research papers that are accessible to a broad readership and discuss sustainable, state-of-the art approaches to shaping the future of energy. This multidisciplinary journal will appeal to all researchers and professionals working in any area of energy in academia, industry or government, including scientists, engineers, consultants, policy-makers, government officials, economists and corporate organisations.
