Abstract

A high-quality power supply is required for the proper functioning of the electric vehicle (EV) charging system. However, the voltage quality is one of the significant issues in the distribution grid. This article aims to examine the impacts of voltage disturbance on EV batteries and charging systems, and provides a fault ride-through capability (FRTC) to enhance the voltage quality. The charging system is constructed by the three-phase controlled rectifier and the dc–dc converter. The EV battery pack is modeled with lithium-ion batteries. The FRTC system is designed to improve the voltage quality, and it is achieved through the dynamic voltage restorer. It protects the EV batteries and charging system from the critical voltage sag levels. The performance of the proposed EV charging station (EVCS) has been investigated in 30%, 60%, and 90% voltage sag through the MATLAB/Simulink platform. Also, the real-time validation has been carried out by the software-in-the-loop test with the help of the dSPACE (DS1202) real-time system. The EVCS with an FRTC system provides better performance than the conventional EVCS.
