Abstract

This abstract summarizes the efficiency and performance of a grid-connected vehicle-to-grid (V2G) system that utilizes a bidirectional DC-DC converter. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the converter in enabling the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid while providing efficient power transfer for V2G applications. The research focuses on assessing the overall efficiency of the system by considering factors such as power conversion losses, voltage regulation, and harmonic distortion. Performance metrics, including response time, power quality, and stability, are also analyzed to ensure reliable and optimal operation of the V2G system. Experimental measurements and simulations are conducted to evaluate the performance of the bidirectional DC-DC converter under various operating conditions, including different renewable energy sources and varying V2G loads. The obtained results provide insights into the converter's capabilities in terms of energy conversion efficiency and power flow control. The findings demonstrate the significant potential of the bidirectional DC-DC converter in facilitating the seamless integration of renewable energy into the grid, while enabling efficient and reliable power transfer for V2G applications. The outcomes of this study can aid in the development of more efficient and sustainable grid-connected V2G systems, contributing to the advancement of renewable energy utilization and smart grid technologies.
