DC-DC power converters are necessary to step-up the voltage or current with high conversion ratio for many applications e.g. photovoltaic and fuel cell energy conversion, uninterruptible power supply, DC microgrid, automobile, ...

Qatar has some major research priorities targeting; reducing carbon footprints, developing smart cities and smart grids and these demands high deployment of Electric Cars in near future. Qatar is highly progressive country ...

The proposed system is designed to charge the three different duty vehicles (based on the charging power): heavy-duty vehicle, medium-duty vehicle and small duty vehicle through three different modules (Module-A, B and C) ...

The residential and commercial buildings are going green to reduce the carbon footprint. To improve the energy efficiency of the buildings, the Internet of Things can be used in conjunction with power electronic converters ...

Recently, switched inductor (SI) and switched capacitor techniques in dc-dc converter are recommended to achieve high voltage by using the principle of parallel charging and series discharging of reactive elements. It is ...

As the voltage gain of converter increases with the same ratio, the current gain also increases, this increase in current gains will affect the size of the input and the output capacitor. To reduce the ripple in the input ...

Modern utility grid is experiencing a transition from conservative centralized generation structure to a more distributed and decentralized structure. To achieve this transition, decentralized energy sources and loads must ...

In an ac microgrid, reactive power sharing accuracy is affected due to unequal values of interconnecting cable impedances. To resolve this issue, secondary controllers are used to compensate the effect of cable impedances. ...

The transportation sector is one of the most prevalent fossil fuel users worldwide. Therefore, to mitigate the impacts of carbon-dioxide emissions and reduce the use of non-environmentally friendly traditional energy ...

This paper aims to increase the power production of gearless permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind energy conversion systems (WECS) in strong (greater than 25 m/s) wind speed regions. In general, most ...
