This research investigates the application of a Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) charging system for
e-bikes, concentrating on the development and assessment of a Split-Pi converter. In order to
encourage the widespread use of electric bicycles as a sustainable form of transportation in
urban areas, effective charging techniques are essential. An innovative and practical way to
increase the range of electric bicycles is to allow them to charge one another while they are
moving. This is made possible by the proposed V2V charging system. An essential part of the
V2V system, the Split-Pi converter is designed and analyzed in this research. The converter's
capacity to effectively transfer power between electric bicycles is proved through simulations
and results from experiments. The research presented here tackles the issues related to the
infrastructure for charging electric bicycles and adds to the continuing efforts to create
sustainable transportation alternatives. The results in this study highlight the viability of
vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) charging systems for electric bicycles, as well as how important they
are for encouraging eco-friendly urban mobility and having the ability to increase range and
decrease the need for a large infrastructure for charging. In order to integrate the V2V charging
technology with current electric bicycle systems and put it into practice, more research is
needed to develop and improve it.
