Optimized Energy Management Schemes for Electric Vehicle Applications: A Bibliometric Analysis towards Future Trends

Abstract

Concerns over growing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and fuel prices have prompted researchers to look into alternative energy sources, notably in the transportation sector, accounting for more than 70% of carbon emissions. An increasing amount of research on electric vehicles (EVs) and their energy management schemes (EMSs) has been undertaken extensively in recent years to address these concerns. This article aims to offer a bibliometric analysis and investigation of optimized EMSs for EV applications. Hundreds (100) of the most relevant and highly influential manuscripts on EMSs for EV applications are explored and examined utilizing the Scopus database under predetermined parameters to identify the most impacting articles in this specific field of research. This bibliometric analysis provides a survey on EMSs related to EV applications focusing on the different battery storages, models, algorithms, frameworks, optimizations, converters, controllers, and power transmission systems. According to the findings, more articles were published in 2020, with a total of 22, as compared to other years. The authors with the highest number of manuscripts come from four nations, including China, the United States, France, and the United Kingdom, and five research institutions, with these nations and institutions accounting for the publication of 72 papers. According to the comprehensive review, the current technologies are more or less capable of performing effectively; nevertheless, dependability and intelligent systems are still lacking. Therefore, this study highlights the existing difficulties and challenges related to EMSs for EV applications and some brief ideas, discussions, and potential suggestions for future research. This bibliometric research could be helpful to EV engineers and to automobile industries in terms of the development of cost-effective, longer-lasting, hydrogen-compatible electrical interfaces and well-performing EMSs for sustainable EV operations.

Energy and battery management systems for electrical vehicles: A comprehensive review & recommendations

“…Despite the remarkable performance shown by MPIC, efficient energy management in different operating modes necessitates a sophisticated multipurpose algorithm. Another innovative MPIC with a built-in capability to regulate multidirectional power flow was proposed by Miah et al (2021). EV development is still in mature, and new studies are still working to reduce their price and weight.…”

Hydrogen Fuel for Future Mobility: Challenges and Future Aspects

“…For the efficient generation of on-board hydrogen, different topologies have been discussed in the literature for sustainable transportation. An on-board Pd-Ag MR procedure to produce hydrogen has been adopted by [81]. By heat exchanging with water and air in heat exchangers and evaporators, the combustion chamber creates high-temperature flue gas, which may be used to generate steam and hot combustion air.…”

Emerging Intelligent Bidirectional Charging Strategy Based on Recurrent Neural Network Accosting EMI and Temperature Effects for Electric Vehicle

“…The energy experts stated that there are no operating license requirements for EV charging stations worldwide, which might aid in the development of a larger global network of EV charging stations. The government offers discounts to buyers of EVs, lowers the applicable rate of taxes on Li-ion batteries, and offers incentives to the public transit sector to switch to electric cars [43].…”
