Seamless EV Charging with Grid-Independent Operation
EV Charging Architecture to Enable Continuous Charging with Grid Intermittency
Tags: IIT Delhi, India, Transportation & Automotive, Energy & Environment
IIT Delhi has developed an EV charging architecture that ensures continuous charging despite grid intermittency, using a centrally coordinated algorithm and modular battery-swapping system. The system allows seamless bi-directional charging between vehicle-to-grid, grid-to-vehicle, and vehicle-to-home setups while operating in standalone mode. It supports voltage adaptability, prevents harmonic distortion, and integrates MPPT for efficient solar energy use. Applications include EV charging stations and bi-directional energy management in smart grids. A functional prototype has been deployed at IIT Delhi, with an Indian patent application filed (202111037178).
