Management of Energy in Hybrid Electric Vehicles using a Cascaded Fuzzy Logic Controller

This research studies a cascaded fuzzy control approach for power management in hybrid electric vehicles. The intelligent and efficient energy organisation of hybrid electric vehicles poses a threat to the global growth of the gasoline-powered vehicle sector. If we want to regain financial independence and stability with hybrid electric autos, we need to take energy organization seriously. The Integrated SEPIC converter is a combination of the advantageous features of a Boost converter and a SEPIC converter, which enables better voltage conversion, higher voltage gains, and a wider range of voltage conversion, all of which are vital for converting PV productivity into the desired voltage level. Cascaded FLC improves the performance of the converter. Not only the good performance improvement on hybrid electric automobiles, the recommended approach also predicts less value of THD.
