Abstract

The development of electric vehicles (EVs) has created a huge demand for an advanced charging system which is capable of charging an EV in less time. In this paper, a 150 kW DC power supply with efficient T-type converter topology is proposed for EV charging. The proposed topology can be used as an EV charger of reduced size and with a capability to charge an EV battery pack at a high C-rate, thus reducing the charging time. In addition to this, the high-frequency operation of the converter reduces the size of the system while reducing losses of the systems. The proposed 150 kW power supply has been simulated in MATLAB–Simulink environment with the battery model, and the results prove the capability of the proposed charger in high-power application.
