Isolated Zeta-Luo Converter for Solar-Powered, High-Efficiency Electric Vehicle Charging

Abstract

This research introduces a novel approach of charging BEVs that incorporates a photovoltaic (PV) array and a Zeta-Luo converter. The converter enhances the power supply from the PV array to improve charging efficiency; it combines Zeta and Luo technologies. The MATLAB/Simulink-created and -tested model delivers reliable results in a range of scenarios. This innovation makes EV charging more accessible and environmentally friendly by providing much greater charger efficiency compared to traditional converters. The use of renewable energy sources might revolutionise electric vehicle charging infrastructure, making it more effective and environmentally friendly in the long run. [1]
