dc.description.abstractThis study presents an eco-friendly charging solution with an improved charging methodology for a high-efficiency off-board Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) charging interface supported by photovoltaic (PV) power to facilitate energy exchange between light electric vehicles (EVs). The proposed method uses dynamic current control to adapt charging current in real time according to solar irradiance and the state of charge (SoC) of the vehicles. This approach improves energy transfer compared to conventional constant current (CC) and multistage CC methods, which use fixed or stepwise charging profiles and cannot fully utilize variable PV power. A high-gain quadratic buck-boost (QBB) converter is employed to enable both step-up and step-down operation, making the system suitable for vehicles with different voltage levels. The control strategy combines dynamic current control with an enhanced incremental conductance (InC) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm to maximize solar energy use. Performance results from processor-in-the-loop simulations show that the proposed system achieves more stable voltage regulation, better SoC improvement (+0.056 %), and higher charging efficiency than conventional CC and multi-CC methods under varying conditions. The performance findings show that the proposed V2V-PV interface provides a robust and efficient charging approach, supporting sustainable and grid-independent electric mobility.
