A REVIEW ON VARIOUS METHODS FOR CHARGING TOPOLOGY OF ELECTRIC VEHICLE BATTERIES

Electrical Engineering

This paper presents a review on the different types of EV charging method like conventional & advanced methods based on the infrastructure, method of power transfer, power levels, and direction of power flow for charging of electric vehicle batteries. As the demand for EVs continues to grow, the limitations of conventional charging approaches become increasingly apparent, underscoring the necessity for innovative solutions that can unlock new dimensions of efficiency, speed, and reliability in recharging EV batteries. However, electric vehicles face significant charging time, charging methods, and range anxiety challenges. To overcome these challenges, charging technologies for electric vehicle batteries play an essential role. Various types of electric vehicle charging topologies have been discussed in many practical applications. As the demand for EVs continues to increase, the limitations of conventional charging approaches become increasingly apparent, underscoring the necessity for innovative solutions that can unlock new dimensions of efficiency, speed, and reliability in recharging EV batteries. For charging, the conventional method is being grid-based, usage of solar energy for charging batteries and incorporating vehicle to grid and grid to vehicle power transfer has been identified. Recent methods for EV battery charging are such as Battery Swap Station (BSS), Wireless Power Transfer (WPT), and Conductive Charging (CC) has been studied. In this we analyzed various methods for charging electric vehicle. This provides the research directions for the academic and industrial communities.
