Electric vehicles (EVs) are attracting widespread global attention due to their exceptional performances and significant reduction in greenhouse gases emission. The fundamental operation of electric vehicles revolves around the seamless interaction between the energy storage system and the converter. However, one limitation is the instability and lack of control in the energy provided by the energy storage systems. To overcome this drawback, various EV converters, controllers, and other converters are utilized to ensure the safe and efficient transfer of renewable energy from the energy store to the generator. Consequently, extensive research has been conducted on different EV converter topologies, control distribution, conversion strategies, and optimization techniques.

In this paper we analyzed about the cuk and flyback converters and mainly focused on battery charging characteristics like SOC, current and voltage. In cuk converter we are going to analyze characteristics in buck and boost mode and flyback converter in boost mode.
