FAQS 4

Does bidirectional charging reduce NPV?

Owing to higher initial costs, bidirectional charging experiences a temporary decline in NPV because of possible costs associated with maintenance, infrastructure, or grid integration. However, bidirectional charging could still be beneficial for energy optimization and grid support, despite its lower NPV.

How can bidirectional charging/discharging a battery achieve maximum PV power utilization?

In addition, with the proposed strategies, the bidirectional charging/discharging capability of the battery is able to achieve the maximum PV power utilization. All the proposed strategies can be realized by the digital signal processor without adding any additional circuit, component, and communication mechanism.

How does a bidirectional charging system work?

For the bidirectional charging system depicted in Fig. 4 b, the PV system charges the EV battery via unidirectional charging but introduces a discharging functionality to manage the energy distribution dynamically. This prevents the SOC from remaining fully discharged at 100% SOC, as energy is discharged when needed.

Why is bidirectional charging important for electric vehicles?

The flexibility of electric vehicles can be used by means of bidirectional charging in numerous applications to promote self-sufficiency, save costs and support the energy sector via grid and system services.
