Enhancing the Power Quality of the Grid Interactive Solar Photovoltaic-Electric Vehicle System

Grid interactive solar photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems are the emerging technologies nowadays, mainly due to energy cost reduction and minimization of emission levels. Various research surveys have presented the effect of grid integration of PVs and EVs in an isolated way. However, it is worth accepting that with the continuous emergence of PVs and EVs, the power grid is experiencing the combined effect of PV-EV integration. The distribution system network of EVs impacts the power quality of the grid. In this paper, shunt active power filter is modelled using neuro-fuzzy control technique for the mitigation of harmonics using MATLAB. The improvement in the system performance is analyzed and compared with the traditional compensation techniques.
