Abstract

This paper unveils a groundbreaking wide-range DC-DC converter with significant voltage gain and bidirectional capability, engineered explicitly for Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) chargers. This converter facilitates both Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) operations. It aims to revolutionize efficiency, voltage range, and bidirectional power flow capabilities, marking a significant leap forward from existing solutions. A meticulous comparative analysis between established systems and the proposed converter highlights its distinct advantages and evolutionary strides within the HEV charging infrastructure landscape. By enhancing the versatility and performance of HEV chargers, this converter promises to address critical challenges in energy management and integration. Its innovative design not only optimizes energy transfer but also supports future advancements in smart grid technology and sustainable transportation. The results of this study underscore the converter's potential to drive forward the next generation of electric vehicle infrastructure, paving the way for more efficient and resilient energy systems.
