The quest for energy conservation is a thought-provoking conundrum to researchers. Time to time they contributed towards this pursuit. In the 19th century, it was a fascinating idea about electric vehicles (EVs). As most of the developing countries depend on conventional energy sources, integration of EVs with renewable energy sources justified the cause. The parking slots became transformed into unlimited sources of clean energy. For the comfort of charging and better energy management, wireless power transfer technology was introduced to the charging station. As a fulfilment of the technology, the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) integration was implemented. It helped the bi-directional power flow between the vehicle and the grid with renewable energy. This study presents an extensive review of the renewable energy powered wireless charging and V2G integration of EVs. Various topologies are discussed with mathematical explanations and block diagrams. Concepts are validated with PSIM simulations.

“…Before the V2G integration, it should satisfy some standards that are mentioned below. The line to line voltage of microgrid is 208 V. A single phase off-the-phase equipment line to neutral voltage of 120 V can be operated [128] by this. The detailed design and operation of this microgrid can be found in [129].…”

“…In the circuit, the coupling capacitance C 1 and C 2 are 10.5nF and 9.5nF respectively which correspond to the measured conformal bumper coupling. The load is the 156V battery pack in the Corbin Sparrow [21]. The circuit is designed based on the available capacitive coupling, load parameters and desired power level.…”

Wireless power transfer (WPT) is emerging as a practical means for electric vehicle (EV) charging. Of the three main approaches to WPT, resonant inductive, inductive, and capacitive coupling, capacitive power transfer (CPT) is proposed herein to charge an EV at a kilowatt scale power level. CPT implementation replaces copper coils and ferrous core focusing/shield materials of inductive approaches with foil surfaces making CPT cost effective and structurally simple to implement, while maintaining efficient power transfer capability. This paper addresses each facet of kilowatt scale CPT system development, namely achieving high coupling capacitance between the vehicle and charging station and the associated drive power electronics. High capacitive coupling is achieved through a conformal (flexible and compressive) foam transmitter bumper that molds and contours itself to the vehicle to minimize air gap during charging. An experimental docking station to charge a Corbin Sparrow EV 156V battery pack was built and measured throughput power is demonstrated at >1kW with a coupling capacitance of 10nF operating at 540kHz.

The issue of optimal operation control of microgrids is a very important problem. As a result of changing weather conditions and the demand for the power of individual consumers, generation units and energy storage devices must constantly adjust their operation states. The optimization of the microgrid operation states can simultaneously provide the required level of power and energy and, for example, minimization of power losses or costs associated with the operation of this type of system. Among many available optimization methods, author of a paper decided to test the CLONALG algorithm, which is an implementation of artificial immune system. The article will presents the characteristics of selected CLONALG algorithm, and the description of the test microgrid together with the considered optimization criteria and constraints. The presentation and analysis of the obtained results from optimization calculations will be the main part of the paper. At the end of the paper observations and conclusion will be presented.
