Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) represent both a new challenge for and a huge potential resource to the smart-grid. The secret to effective integration of renewable energy generation into the smart-grid is integration of enough storage to deal with the intermittency of the generation. However, there are several barriers to integrating enough storage to effectively harness renewable energy in the...
An improved boost DC-DC converter meeting the requirements of intrinsic safety is presented. The maximum values of output short-circuit discharged energy (OSDE) in CCM and DCM are analyzed, respectively. It is pointed out that the OSDE of a boost converter is the summation of the energy from the source and the inductor and the energy stored in the capacitor. It is proved that the maximal value of...
