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. 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.
