Electric vehicle battery from present state to future

Image
POSTED BY:   http://aevt.org/  &  http://aevt.in/ Electric and hybrid vehicles are associated with green technologies and a reduction in greenhouse emissions due to their low emissions of greenhouse gases and fuel-economic benefits over gasoline and diesel vehicles. Recent analyses show nevertheless that electric vehicles contribute to the increase in greenhouse emissions through their excessive need for power sources, particularly in countries with limited availability of renewable energy sources, and result in a net contribution and increase in greenhouse emissions across the European continent. The chemical and electronic components of car batteries and their waste management require also a major investment and development of recycling technologies, to limit the dispersion of electric waste materials in the environment. With an increase in fabrication and consumption of battery technologies and multiplied production of electric vehicles worldwide in recent yea...

Tesla Semi takes off with its first load

Image
POSTED BY:   http://aevt.org/  &  http://aevt.in/ Tesla made quite a statement when it finally unveiled its all-electric long hauler last year, listing some truly impressive numbers in terms of range and acceleration. The might of the Tesla Semi's is now being put to the test, with a production model rolling out of the Gigafactory with a load onboard for the very first time. When announcing the Tesla Semi back in November, Elon Musk claimed the truck would be able to accelerate to 97 km/h (60 mph) in five seconds flat when empty, putting it in the realm of some sports cars. When fully loaded to its capacity of 80,000 lb (36,288 kg), it would still only take 20 seconds. Range, meanwhile, is listed at an astonishing 500 mi (805 km) on a single charge, while fully loaded and traveling 65 mph (104 km/h). Musk said that this range should cover the majority of round trips, noting that 80 percent of long-haul routes are less than 250 mi (400 km). But not the trip...

Electric Vehicles drive new business models in India

POSTED BY:   http://aevt.org/  &  http://aevt.in/ Electronic vehicles are expected to drive significant behavioral changes in the Indian market and its increasing adoption will lead to new business models in the mobility value chain going forward, says a report. According to Feedback Business Consulting Services' Multi-Client Mega Trend Report on the future of Electronic vehicles (EV), the concerns on operating range of EVs are misplaced, as personal cars are increasingly used for point to point travel and for a limited range of kilo .. As per the report, India, home to one of the largest 2-wheeler population in the world will witness a fast shift to EVs as it has the inherent advantage of easy charging. Meanwhile, personal cars will have a slow shift in the initial 2-3 years till major Auto Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) come with their range and variety and then the movement will have its momentum. The report stated EVs will drive new business...

About Electric Vehicle

Image
There are many reasons for you to choose an electric vehicle (EV) over a vehicle powered by petrol or diesel. An electric car is much cheaper to run (equivalent to paying 30 cents a litre for petrol), more efficient, doesn't pollute the air with exhaust emissions and delivers an 80% reduction in CO2 emissions. There are two basic types of EVs: all-electric vehicles (AEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). AEVs include Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs). In addition to charging from the electrical grid, both types are charged in part by regenerative braking, which generates electricity from some of the energy normally lost when braking. Which type of vehicle will fit your lifestyle depends on your needs and driving habits. Find out which BEVs and PHEVs are available to suit your needs. All-electric vehicles (AEVs) run only on electricity. Most have all-electric ranges of 80 to 100 miles, while a few luxury models have ranges ...

By 2025, India should have 20-25% EVs

Image
If electric vehicles stood at about 20-25% of the total vehicles registered in 2025, India could consider that it had done a “splendid job,” the CEO of Tata Motors, Guenter Butschek, said on Tuesday. The Centre has proposed moving to 100% electric vehicles by 2030, though the auto industry has recommended that the country should target 40% of personal vehicles and 100% of public transport vehicles to turn electric by then. It has suggested 2047 as the target for all-electric passenger vehicles. Fuel cell future Addressing a group of editors, Mr. Butschek stated that strong growth in the electric vehicle segment would also lead to the automatic promotion of fuel cell vehicles as well. In a presentation, the CEO claimed that India could be the world’s third largest auto market by 2026, with a revenue of $300 billion. The auto industry was looking at growth of 10-15% for the next five years. He claimed that all industry players did not have a “level playing field” as they m...
