Design Energy Efficient Mechanism For Electrical Vehicle Using Power Electronics

Electric Vehicle

An electric vehicle (EV), also called an electric drive vehicle, uses one or more electric motors or traction motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle may be powered through a collector system by electricity from off-vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery, solar panels or an electric generator to convert fuel to electricity. EVs include road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels, electric aircraft and electric spacecraft. EVs first came into existence in the mid-19th century, when electricity was among the preferred methods for motor vehicle propulsion, providing a level of comfort and ease of operation that could not be achieved by the gasoline cars of the time. Modern internal combustion engines have been the dominant propulsion method for motor vehicles for almost 100 years, but electric power has remained commonplace in other vehicle types, such as trains and smaller vehicles of all types. In the 21st century, EVs saw a resurgence due to technological developments and an increased focus on renewable energy. Government incentives to increase adoptions were introduced, including in the India, United States and the European Union. In this paper we have reviewed various research reports in the developments of the components of the Electrical Vehicle in order to provide a solution wherein key developments have been integrated as well as DC/DC converter design and Separate Controller have been proposed to develop optimally efficient Electrical Vehicle.
