A bidirectional three-level interleaved DC-DC converter for an electric vehicle charging station operating in a wide range of battery currents and voltages (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Putera, P., Klumpner, C., & Wheeler, P. (2022, June). A bidirectional three-level interleaved DC-DC converter for an electric vehicle charging station operating in a wide range of battery currents and voltages. Presented at PEMD 2022 : The 11th International Conference on Power Electronics, Machines and Drives, Hybrid Conference, Newcastle, UK

Charging an Electrical Vehicle (EV) is a process dependent on the specs of their battery in each car with the charger being custom designed. This means that designing the converter for a general EV charging station is very challenging because it must...
