Comprehensive Dual Mode Charging Systems for Lead Acid Batteries in Electric Vehicles

The advancement of charging systems has played a pivotal role in the development and sustainability of electric vehicles (EVs). With an increasing demand for reliable and efficient charging mechanisms, dual-mode chargers have emerged as an essential component in managing the health and longevity of lead-acid batteries. These chargers operate in two distinct modes: boost mode and trickle mode, enabling optimized charging based on the battery’s state of charge. This review paper delves into the working principles of dual-mode charging systems, specifically designed for 60V 16A lead-acid batteries, and explores their impact on battery performance, lifespan, and energy efficiency.
