Power Electronics in Renewable Energy System & Electric Vehicles

EV companies in the global market focused on the recent technologies towards Hydrogen (H2) and FC-VPT to improve the Tank-To-Wheel (TTW) efficiency. The inherent benefits are the cost-effective solution for 'Eco' friendly, free of emission, and high-power capacity. The power converters are crucial in boosting the fuel cell stack power through voltage conversion. Therefore, ensure the demand for the motor and transmission in the vehicles. Several converter topologies have been proposed for various vehicular applications. State-of-the-art technology, newly developed families of the unidirectional non-isolated Multistage Power Converter (MPC) configuration for Fuel Cell – Vehicular Power Train (FC-VPT), Renewables, and Microgrids application will be discussed in the presentation. Power converters with the new modified version are viable and cost-effective solutions with reduced size and increased efficiency. The comprehensive review and comparison of different topologies and suitability for various applications will be discussed in the presentation, correctly applied to the power train of a small vehicle to large vehicles (bus, trucks, etc.). Finally, the advantages/disadvantages will be pointed out in the presentation for the prominent features of each converter, its challenges, and its application for fuel cell (FC) technology, EVs, Microgrids, and Renewables.
