This text will help readers to gain knowledge about designing power electronic converters and their control for electric vehicles. It discusses the ways in which power from electric vehicle batteries is transferred to an electric motor, the technology used for charging electric vehicle batteries, and energy storage. The text covers case studies and real-life examples related to electric vehicles.

Electric vehicles (EVs) have relatively high well-to-wheel efficiency, hence providing higher fuel economy and significantly reducing environmental pollution. Despite being a century-old concept, EVs were not popular in the past due to high cost, limited performance, short range, and long charging times. However, with advancements in power electronics, electric motors, and the invention of high-performance batteries, the performance of an EV has drastically increased and outpowered a conventional internal combustion engine-based vehicle in terms of performance. In an EV, power electronics mainly process and control the flow of electrical energy from the energy source (i.e., battery, fuel cell, hybrid storage, etc.) to the motor. Power electronics form the core component in plug-in charging. They also enable fast and wireless charging of EV batteries. Today, EV’s power electronics utilize wide band gap (WBG) semiconductor devices (like silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN)) for efficient control and conversion of electric power. These WBG devices can withstand higher temperatures and operate at high frequencies with low power losses. Because of these features, the WBG-based power converter offers high efficiency and power density. Today, research on power converters for EV applications focuses on novel topologies and designs that can reduce part counts and enable reliable and modular components. Research on fast charging, renewable energy integrated solutions, charging infrastructure, high-performance and low-cost motor drive algorithms, wireless charging, etc., is gaining momentum for EV applications.

In this book, we have attempted to include recent research findings, challenges, emerging technologies, and recent developments in the application of power electronics to electric vehicles. The major topics covered in this book include: (i) introduction to electric and hybrid electric vehicles (Chapter 1), (ii) onboard charging infrastructure (Chapter 2), (iii) power converter topologies for EV applications (Chapters 3 and 4), (iv) integration of renewable energy for EV and energy storage applications (Chapter 5), (v) recent advancements in wireless charging (Chapters 6 and 7), and (vi) electric drives, algorithms, and traction control for EVs (Chapters 8, 9, 10, and 11).

The book:

• Discusses the latest advances and developments in the field of electric vehicles
• Examines the challenges associated with the integration of renewable energy sources with electric vehicles
• Highlights basic understanding of the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles
• Covers concepts including the reliability of power converters in electric vehicles, and battery management systems.

This book discusses the challenges, emerging technologies, and recent development of power electronics for electric vehicles. It will serve as an ideal reference text for graduate students and academic researchers in the fields of electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, environmental engineering, automotive engineering, and computer science.
