Abstract
In this chapter, various electric vehicle (EV) charging technologies are reviewed, including onboard charging, offboard charging, and contactless charging. The focus is on charging power control as well as its converter topology. Because EV charging significantly influences the grid, the power quality of EV charging is thoroughly reviewed in terms of modeling, analysis, and mitigation measures. EV charging, especially overnight, gives a lot of flexibility to instant charging power, which can be used to improve the load flow in the electric grid. Smart charging describes those approaches, which are also reviewed.
