A WECS fed Grid Tied DC-DC LUO Converter for Energy Management in Electric Vehicle System

Nowadays, the vast increase in population has raised the count of people using vehicles, due to which high pollution as well as global warming occurs. Moreover, due to high degradation of fossil fuels, high energy demand occurs all over the world, leading to the requirement of an alternate energy sources as compensation. This accelerated the way for the utilization of Renewable energy sources (RES), which are available throughout the year and are of reduced cost. Nevertheless, as the fuel cost of internal combustion engine-based vehicles increases, most of the people in today’s situation prefer Electric vehicles (EV) and recently, the RES based EV’s are attaining high attraction. This paper proposes a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) fed LUO converter based electric vehicle system. Initially, the AC supply from the WECS is applied to the Rectifier, in which it is converted into DC supply. Since the DC supply attained is low, it is boosted with the help of DC-DC LUO converter. Further, through a Voltage Source Inverter (VSI), it is given to the grid. The extra energy from the Wind energy system is stored in the battery through a Bi-directional battery converter, which is further employed for Electric vehicle applications. The proposed technique affords incessant supremacy stream to the Electric vehicles without any interruption, thus providing efficient energy management with high efficiency and low THD.
