In this paper, an attempt has been made to introduce a new control strategy including Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and Diesel engine generator to control the voltage and frequency of autonomous microgrids. The proposed control strategy has multiple advantages over the recent control methods in microgrids. The proposed method applies the primary and secondary frequency control strategy...

A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle(PHEV) is a promising way of achieving the benefits of the electric vehicle without being limited by the electric range. This paper develops an adaptive control strategy based on a map-based ECMS approach. The control is developed and implemented in a simulator provided by IFP Energies nouvelles for the PHEV benchmark. The implemented control strives to be as bl...

This paper presents the user-friendly plug-andcharge mechanism defined in the ISO/IEC 15118 standard which enables an automatic authentication, authorisation, and billing procedure during the charging process of an electric vehicle. The various certificates, their application in a public key infrastructure as well as the interplay with a clearing house are explained – illustrated using the Germ...

Battery chargers are essential components for further development of plug-in vehicles including electric or hybrid electric vehicles. The 3.3kW battery charges are widely used in plug-in vehicles in which the power source is the single phase ac grid. The auto industry has stringent requirements on the size, efficiency, temperature and packaging of the onboard chargers that are reviewed in this ...
