A Review on Assembly of Solar Electric Vehicle

Shubhaseesh Srivastava

Abstract


In today’s world, the greenhouse effect is a big concern. Solar energy is a renewable energy source that can be used for thousands of years. In order to keep global warming below 2°C, COP21 convened the Paris Climate Conference 2015 in Paris in 2015, and nearly 190 countries pledged to collaborate on climate change issues. Solar electric vehicles emit no pollutants and are environmentally friendly. Solar energy is a renewable source of energy. Our solar car, which has many solar cells, has solar panels affixed to the top. The photovoltaic effect converts solar energy into electrical energy in these solar cells. Solar electric vehicle batteries should be carefully picked because a good battery has better energy capacity. Renewable energy sources such as solar must be considered in order to reduce carbon monoxide emissions without slowing development. William G. Cobb of General Motors made the first solar car, which he termed sun mobile. Solar automobiles have various restrictions that will be overcome by future technological advancements.
