Hybrid boost converter (HBC) has been proposed to replace a dc/dc boost converter and a dc/ac converter to reduce conversion stages and switching loss. In this paper, control of a three-phase HBC in a Photovoltaic (PV) charging station is designed and tested. This HBC interfaces a PV system, a dc system with a hybrid plug-in electrical vehicles, and a three-phase ac grid. The control of the HBC is designed to realize maximum power point tracking for PV, dc bus voltage regulation, and ac voltage or reactive power regulation. A testbed with power electronics switching details is built in MATLAB/SimPowersystems for validation. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the designed control architecture. Finally, lab experimental testing is conducted to demonstrate HBC's control performance.
