Energy Storage Systems for Electric Vehicles – Indian outlook

Abstract

Despite the fact that Electric Vehicles are the most un-polluting vehicles because of their green nature of travel, the future of Electric Vehicle in India is uncertain. On one side, the given work provides an in-depth overview of Mechanical and, Electrochemical Storage System. And on the other hand, the work also illustrates characteristic study of variables like internal resistance, voltage, power, and thermal efficiency of battery pack generated through Simulink ADISOR, in MatLab software for batteries like Lead Acid, Nickel, Zinc-Halo, Metal-air, Lithium-ion batteries. The study also reveils characteristic features of Sodium-ion Batteries, which are the next-gen batteries. Ultimately the work reveils some unattended factors, where EV batteries require research like environment, fast charging, human safety, cost of ownership, and battery behaviour in different environmental conditions.
