Development of Smart Hybrid Energy Storage System for Electric Vehicles |
| Project Description |
Electric vehicles (EVs) in India face range anxiety, inefficient braking energy recovery due to a single-source structure. Battery units (BU) provide high energy density, but frequent high-energy peaks can lead to deterioration of their health and life. Ultracapacitors (UCs) provide high power density and quick charge-discharge capabilities but are not suitable for long-term demand. Fuel cells (FC) deliver continuous power but are slow for dynamic loads. Utilizing the advantages of these three sources, a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) can be developed for urban driving scenarios that efficiently recovers regenerative braking energy, extends range, and optimizes power usage. one major objectives is to develop a powertrain consisting of a multi-input bidirectional DC/DC converter, an inverter, and an electric traction motor (EM) |
