The Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicle has become passion today for its less emission of gasoline and reduced fuel price. PHEVs have battery to be recharged from a standard power vent. It is an unexpected load in residential power system. Uncoordinated charging of many PHEVs at a time creates a sudden change in load demand of grid causes a potential drop in power system and power loss. PHEV consumes more energy from the grid. This report offers a technique to trim power consumption from the power system. A high power, bidirectional DC-DC converter is introduced in PHEV to charge the battery when the motor in PHEV acts as a generator. In this paper, Intelligent fuzzy logic controller is proposed as charging controller of the battery. Performance of the proposed system is simulated using Matlab and compared to the conventional controls. This paper proposes a technique to reduce load demand on distribution grid.
