Electric vehicles (EV), are being hailed as part of the solution to reducing urban air pollution and noise, and staving off climate change. Their success hinges on the availability and reliability of fast and efficient charging facilities, both stationary and in-motion. These in turn depend on appropriate integration with the grid, load and outage management, and on the mitigation of loads using renewable energy and storage. Charging management to preserve the battery will also play a key role.This book covers the latest in charging technology; stationary as well as wireless and in-motion. Grid integration, simulations, fast charging, and battery management are also addressed.The objective of this book is to provide readers with an in-depth knowledge about EV charging infrastructure, and grid integration issues and solutions. The book serves as a reference for researchers in academia and industry, covering almost every aspect of the charging and grid integration of EVs.

In order to create a reliable, safe and cost-effective electric vehicle with acceptable range, battery charging time, battery life and driving performance, it is important to design optimised and compatible components and charging systems.This book offers an overview of the design, modeling, simulation and control of electric vehicle components and charging technologies. Chapters address the fundamentals of electric vehicles and the essentials of their power electronics components, discuss the principles of design, modeling, simulation and control, and then apply those principles to electric machines, drives and battery management systems. Where relevant, MATLAB/Simulink models are included. Further topics include fault tolerant operation, wired and wireless charging systems, power quality control, and grid integration. Current regulations and standards are also addressed.Electric Vehicle Components and Charging Technologies: Design, modeling, simulation and control is intended to be suitable for newcomers to the field, though it assumes an engineering background. The discussions of emerging concepts, methods and realisation are also intended to be thought-provoking for more established researchers, engineers and industry professionals.

This book compiles the refereed papers presented during the 2nd Flexible Electronics for Electric Vehicles (FlexEV - 2021). This book incorporates economical and efficient electric vehicle driving and the latest innovations in electric vehicle technology with their paradigms and methods that employ knowledge in the research community.
