Enhancing Power Quality in Solar-Integrated Smart Grids for EV Systems Through Smart Controller

Global need for Electric vehicles (EVs) is uninterruptedly growing, as a result of increased CO2 emissions and the harm that traditional cars cause to the environment. The transportation sector has also changed as a result of EVs. Because of its unique features, which include reduced carbon emissions, noise pollution, and operating costs, as well as the ability to function in dual Grid-To-Vehicle (G-V) & Vehicle-To-Grid (V-G) situations, EVs are becoming more and more popular. However, it has a variety of impacts on distributed grid. The addition of EVs to the distribution system has resulted in a number of power issues, including voltage oscillations, distortions in currents, harmonic distortions, and power factor degradation. This study's main focus is on reducing PQ problems, like as harmonics, that arise in the distributed power network when electric vehicles are incorporated at the distribution end. Using a Dynamic Shunt Filter (DSF) with MPSO tailored CCC control approach, the current profile on the distribution side is improved and harmonics are reduced. MATLAB/Simulink is used to validate MPSO-DSF performance in conjunction with VtoG and GtoV operations.
