Summary/Abstract: The key requirement for electric vehicles is efficient braking. The objective of this study is to provide a detailed description of the regenerative braking system utilizing various power flow regulators. This study utilizes a buck-boost type Boost Converter. There are two methods employed to modify the voltage derived from the fluctuating input produced during regenerative braking: one to decrease it and the other to boost it. Subsequently, a voltage sensor detects the resulting output voltage, which is then regulated using an Arduino microcontroller. The examination findings indicate that the buck-boost converter performs well, maintaining an output voltage within the range of 39-40 volts. This allows it to function well even when there are fluctuations in the input voltage. The voltage value can be utilized for the purpose of charging a battery for a 36 Volt electric motor. The findings demonstrate the efficacy of utilizing a Buck-Boost Converter regulator. Furthermore, it could charge the battery within a span of 8 seconds, making it a viable option for electric vehicles as an alternative to regenerative braking for battery recharging.
