The wide-scale integration of electric vehicles (EVs) in developed countries represents a significant technological innovation and a step toward reducing carbon emissions from transportation. Conversely, in developing nations like the Philippines, the adoption and availability of EVs have not been as rapid or widespread compared to other countries. In identifying this gap, this study delved into the preferences and factors influencing Filipino consumers’ willingness to purchase EVs. The study gathered 311 valid responses utilizing conjoint analysis with an orthogonal approach to assess the attributes influencing customers’ purchase decisions. Conjoint analysis tools such as IBM SPSS v25 statistics were utilized to infer consumer preference. The results determined that cost is the primary concern for consumers by a considerable margin; followed by battery type and charging method; along with the type of EV, driving range, and charging speed; and most minor concern is regenerative brakes. Therefore, there is an apparent sensitivity to price and technology. This study is the first to apply conjoint analysis to the Philippine market, delivering in-depth consumer preference insights that can help manufacturers and policymakers customize their approach to making EVs more attractive and more viable in less developed markets. The results suggest that a targeted effort to overcome cost barriers and improve technological literacy among prospective buyers should be productive for speeding up EV adoption in the Philippines. The results could be extended in future research to a broader assessment of socioeconomic and environmental benefits, laying out a broader plan for promoting sustainable solutions in transportation.

“…Although combining both groups has the potential to reach extremely high switching frequencies, it is important to recognize the intrinsic constraint of WBG devices—their inability to withstand high power levels 63 . Therefore, it is necessary to use a hybrid strategy that utilizes the advantages of both conventional and wide bandgap (WBG) devices in order to achieve an ideal equilibrium between power and switching needs 64 , 65 . Expanding on the findings of reference 50 , the study emphasizes the existing lack of WBG devices and highlights the urgent requirement for their incorporation into EV fast-charging applications.…”

In response to the growing demand for fast-charging electric vehicles (EVs), this study presents a novel hybrid multimodule DC–DC converter based on the dual-active bridge (DAB) topology. The converter comprises eight modules divided into two groups: four Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) modules and four Metal–Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MESFET) modules. The former handles high power with a low switching frequency, while the latter caters to lower power with a high switching frequency. This configuration leverages the strengths of both types of semiconductors, enhancing the converter’s power efficiency and density. To investigate the converter’s performance, a small-signal model is developed, alongside a control strategy to ensure uniform power sharing among the modules. The model is evaluated through simulation using MATLAB, which confirms the uniformity of the charging current provided to EV batteries. The results show an impressive power efficiency of 99.25% and a power density of 10.99 kW/L, achieved through the utilization of fast-switching MESFETs and the DAB topology. This research suggests that the hybrid multimodule DC–DC converter is a promising solution for fast-charging EVs, providing high efficiency, power density, and switching speed. Future studies could explore the incorporation of advanced wide bandgap devices to handle even larger power fractions.

The increasing number of electric vehicles (EVs) that are connected to the power grid has raised concerns about the security of both transportation and power grids. This paper presents a fault prevention strategy that involves the use of social networks to improve the performance of electric vehicle charging stations. Firstly, the goal of this strategy is to improve the electric vehicle charging station’s performance by developing an evolutionary game model that takes into account the various factors that affect the electric vehicle’s response and travel time. Secondly, a number of charging station sample data is generated and analyzed using a convolutional neural framework. The capacity of the stations is then calculated by taking into account the different incentive measures offered by the power grid.. Furthermore, an optimal power flow model considering fault risk constraints and charging and discharging capacity constraints is established in the power grid or power grid subsystem to adjust the generator output and charging station power to realize the safe dispatching of the power grid. The simulation example shows that this method can fully consider the influence of traffic networks in the participation of EVs in power grid fault prevention, which is more reasonable.
