Abstract

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are gaining popularity due to their role in reducing air pollution, utilizing renewable energy sources, and offering lower charging costs compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. However, EVs can be truly sustainable only when charged from renewable energy sources. With advancements in power converter technology and EV charging infrastructure, bidirectional charging systems have emerged, enabling Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operation to support the grid. Charging an EV during the day and supplying power back to the grid when needed allows EV owners to get financial profits. However, the integration of power converters in bidirectional charging can impact grid parameters, leading to power quality issues. To mitigate these effects and enhance grid stability, this paper proposes a feed forward decoupled control method. The proposed control approach effectively reduces harmonics and improves the total behaviour of the system. The model is developed and simulated in MATLAB/Simulink to validate the effectiveness of the suggested method.
