Electric Vehicles (EV) offer eco-friendly transportation, but the growth of the electric vehicle market year over year is very minimal due to insufficient EV charging stations, slow charging time and grid instability during peak hours. This paper proposes a high gain, fast charging DC-DC converter and a control algorithm for grid integrated Solar PV based Electric Vehicle Charging Station (SPV-EVCS) with battery backup. The proposed converter and its control algorithm's performance are investigated in three different modes using MATLAB/Simulink tool and the simulated results are validated with Real-Time Digital Simulation (RTDS) in OPAL-RT. The observed results meet the Power Quality limits of an IEC61000-3-2 standard and met the level-4 dc charging standard IEC61851.

Multiphase machines have many advantages such as smoother toque and low stator current at each phase without increasing the stator voltage per phase and are mainly used in industrial applications. By implementing nine phase drive system the stator current reduces at each phase, which neglects the use of high-cost bulky power harnessing equipment’s that are used in the conventional 3-phase electric vehicle drive system. In this article, a nine phase electric vehicle inverter is designed for the electric vehicle drive system. Choosing a pulse width modulation technique is the foremost criterion. In this article sinusoidal pulse width modulation and space vector pulse width modulation technique is simulated and comparison is made based on the quality of power output. The simulation is modeled through Simulink software and the results are presented.
