“…Bi et al [73] and P. K. Maroti et al [88] propose two types of converters: clamped capacitor H-Type boost DC-DC converter and Tri-switching state non-isolated high gain DC-DC boost converter, which have the same power level of about 0.5 kW and a maximum efficiency of 94.72% and 94.67%, respectively. These demonstrate the real advantages of wide voltage gain range and lower voltage stress over semiconductors and power capacitors compared to other converter models that have the same power but much lower maximum efficiency [89]. Low power converters: 0.1 kw [80] or 0.2 kw [90], have a maximum efficiency of around 93%, lower than other types of converters [91,92], their major advantage being the control of a relatively low complexity, suitable in various fuel cell applications.…”

With the development of technologies in recent decades and the imposition of international standards to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, car manufacturers have turned their attention to new technologies related to electric/hybrid vehicles and electric fuel cell vehicles. This paper focuses on electric fuel cell vehicles, which optimally combine the fuel cell system with hybrid energy storage systems, represented by batteries and ultracapacitors, to meet the dynamic power demand required by the electric motor and auxiliary systems. This paper compares the latest proposed topologies for fuel cell electric vehicles and reveals the new technologies and DC/DC converters involved to generate up-to-date information for researchers and developers interested in this specialized field. From a software point of view, the latest energy management strategies are analyzed and compared with the reference strategies, taking into account performance indicators such as energy efficiency, hydrogen consumption and degradation of the subsystems involved, which is the main challenge for car developers. The advantages and disadvantages of three types of strategies (rule-based strategies, optimization-based strategies and learning-based strategies) are discussed. Thus, future software developers can focus on new control algorithms in the area of artificial intelligence developed to meet the challenges posed by new technologies for autonomous vehicles.

“…Hence, this topology is also not considered for further quantitative analysis. Further, the topologies that are given in [12], [15], [21], [23], [27], [31], [32], [35], [36], [38], [39], [40], [41], [42], [43], [45], [48], [56], [71], [73], and [81] are producing less voltage gain when compared to other topologies. So, those are also not considered for quantitative analysis.…”

Renewable energy is identified as a potential alternative to conventional utility grid-based electricity to meet the present-day requirements of a variety of consumers. However, the inadequacy of matching the generated voltage to the customer required rating is still a major constraint. So, to meet the required energy requirements in terms of voltage ratings, power electronics-based DC-DC boost converters are generally used. But the voltage gain produced by traditional DC-DC boost converter may not be sufficient for the renewable energy application, where, the source voltage ratings produced are usually low. Hence, an effective DC-DC boost converter circuit with high gain has to be identified for this purpose. In line with this, many studies have proposed different topologies. Even though there were some studies presented in the literature, all those did not consider various key performance metrics viz., ripple current, voltage stress, voltage gain, number of components used, efficiency, output quality, switching frequency, etc., for the analysis. The effectiveness of any topology has to be evaluated in terms of the above-mentioned factors to understand its usefulness. Hence, keeping this gap in view, this paper presents a detailed theoretical and simulation analysis on state-of-the-art topologies in view of all the key performance metrics. A comparative analysis concerning the number of components used, performance metrics, output quality, transient response analysis, gain factor achieved, switch rating requirement, voltage/current stresses has been conducted. Based on this analysis of the advanced topologies, a better DC-DC converter topology is suggested as the conclusion of this paper.
