Abstract
This article presents a novel solar photovoltaic energy harvesting system for charging the high voltage Electric Vehicle (E.V.) battery using a Partial Resonant Inverter (PRI) driven doubler rectifier circuit. The Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) uses a Sliding Mode Controller (SMC). The proposed system has been circuit modelled in the MATLAB SIMULINK environment and validated using an experimental prototype. The performance of the proposed system has been compared against existing electric vehicle battery charging systems, and it has been established that the proposed idea outperforms the existing systems in terms of power conversion efficiency, power quality, cost, and size.
