Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology is viewed as a viable solution to offer auxiliary power system services. Currently, V2G operation is only possible through DC chargers using the CHAdeMO connector with the necessary communication protocol. However, in Europe, for high-power DC charging (>50 kW), the Combined Charging Service (CCS) Type 2 is preferred over CHAdeMO. Therefore, this work presents the development of a V2G testing system with a Combo CCSType 2 charger including communication via the ISO 15118-2 protocol. The BOSCH passenger car with a 400 V battery pack is used to test and validate the technical feasibility of V2G charging via a Combo CCS Type 2 connector standard. The V2G feature is characterized in terms of efficiency, signal delay, response proportionality, magnitude accuracy and noise precision. A data driven V2G charger simulation model based on the real-time data is also developed in MATLAB/Simulink. The performance under various operating settings is presented in the outcomes, emphasizing the need for appropriate hardware calibration, and understanding while delivering standard-compliant grid control services using V2G technology. Finally, the results of the simulation model are compared with the real hardware results in terms of error, noise level and data magnitude accuracy.
This paper presents an automotive suitable power electronics for inductive energy transfer of up to 22kW within a box volume of 3.5l. The compact layout and an optimized system topology allow the realization of rectifier and reactive current compensation with a high efficiency of around 98%. The specific layout takes into account cooling of the resonance capacitors as well as of the rectifier. The automotive environment requires failsafe functionality which is independent of the wireless data transfer to the primary side. The hardware is dimensioned and prepared for realizing an additional secondary side power control. Thus, the optimal electrical working point of the energy transfer can be adjusted and overall system losses can be reduced.
