Optimal Control of Solar PV Fed EV Charging Station Using PSO Algorithm

The modelling and simulation of a commercial DC rapid charging system powered by solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays are presented in this work. The active front end converter in the suggested solution uses buck-boost converters to charge the electric vehicle (EV) battery. The charging voltage is managed by the closed loop management of the buck boost converter. The simulation is carried out using the Matlab-Simulink tool, and the output results of the suggested model are compared for line and load regulations, in order to validate the proposed charging technique.
