The battery charging power electronics interface of an electric vehicle (EV) must be capable bidirectional flow to enable both grid-to-vehicle (G2V) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) operations. In the presence a single/three-phase AC supply, front-end EV charger employs factor correction (PFC) rectifier, which should have capability facilitate V2G mode. A conventional active rectifier functions in boo...

The incorporation of electric vehicles (EVs) into residential/industrial microgrids (MGs) presents some limitations such as fluctuations in voltage, frequency, and lack power supply. According to the literature, control methods for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) MGs are insufficiently coordinated charging regulation, limited by narrow constraints, complex, computationally demanding. Moreover, system sta...

This article proposes an optimal coordinated scheduling of electric vehicles (EVs) for a virtual power plant (VPP) considering communication reliability. Recent advancements on wireless technologies offer flexible solutions with wide coverage and low-cost deployment smart grid. Nevertheless, the imperfect may deteriorate monitoring controlling performance distributed energy resources. An intera...

The Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) networks are a part of the Smart Grid networks. Their primary goal is to recharge electric vehicles. These networks, as with any computer system, facing cyber attacks. For example, during charge or process, V2G can be vulnerable attacks such Man-in-the-Middle (MitM), Denial Service (DoS), identity theft, and rebound It therefore up us offer innovative solutions in orde...

An electric vehicle (EV) usually has two main power converters, namely one for the motor drive system and another battery-charging system. Considering similarities between both a new unified converter battery charging of EVs is propounded in this paper. By using single converter, cost, volume, weight electronics are reduced, thus also making possible reduction final price EV. Moreover, proposed...
