Abstract
This paper illustrates the design and simulation of solar powered off-board electric vehicle (EV) charging station for domestic usage by implementing different converter topologies. A typical DC off-board charger consists of a power source and a DC-DC converter for voltage correction in order to match the required nominal battery voltage at the output. If the source is given from a solar photovoltaic (PV) array, a maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is required to track the maximum power generated by the solar panel and deliver it to the converter input. There are many converter topologies currently being developed and tested to increase the efficiency of the charger. This paper selects the basic and widely used topologies which include a) DC-DC boost converter, b) single ended primary inductance converter (SEPIC) and c) full bridge DC-DC converter with high frequency transformer. These topologies are simulated using Simulink/ Matlab environment and the results are explained suitably.
