This report, ‘E Rickshaw deployment plan and report: Kakinada’, is part of the output reports under the project ‘Supporting Smart Urban Mobility and Built Environment in Indian Cities’ under Grant Ref: G 15 SSEF-140 for the period of October 2015 to January 2017. The report highlights the various aspects of assessment undertaken by the project team to verify the feasibility of e-rickshaw deployment in the city. The report also highlights the required institutional frameworks, policy recommendations for e-rickshaw deployment and operational strategy.

This article deals with the design of high-speed synchronous reluctance motors for electric vehicle applications. The need to enhance the power density and to lower the cost leads to research on high-speed motors with a reduced amount of rare earth.

The present paper deals with the provision of ancillary services to the power system through the scheduling of the charging requests of electric vehicles. The scheduling process is based on a hybridization of the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (h-ABC).

The paper presents a study of a multiphase converter for charging stations for electric vehicles. The converter consists of parallel operating units based on high-frequency resonant inverters. Simulation models of multiphase converters have been developed.

This paper focuses on the automobile industry and examines the nature of global value chains in it with reference to the case of India. The aim is to explore the relationship between lead firms, particularly MNCs, and the extent to they have contributed to the development of the Indian automobile industry through transfer of technology and imports. The paper is based on secondary sources and a primary survey.

An important means of transport in urban agglomerations are buses. The article presents the results of simulation studies, the aim of which was to compare comparative energy consumption of short and long city buses in terms of assessing the needs for e-mobility.

This factsheet was developed by the SLoCaT in partnership with, and support of the UK Aid-funded Research for Community Access Partnership (ReCAP) on a set of key messages on rural transport and SDGs. The factsheet also highlights the Sustainable Mobility for All (SuM4ALL) initiative, which was established in 2017 with the aim to act as a platform for advocacy to influence policies on sustainable mobility at global to local levels. The initiative works to facilitate the delivery of four primary objectives of sustainable transport, which include Universal Access, Efficiency, Safety, and Green Mobility. Rural Access and Urban Access are the two sub-objectives under the SuM4All Universal Access objective.

This paper discusses three variants of how e-mobility development will affect the Polish Power System. Multivariate forecasts of annual new registrations of electric vehicles for up to seven years are developed.

In this paper, a novel approach based on a form-fit connection for Nickel Titanium (NiTi) shape memory wire actuators using laser processing is presented. This paper has only presented first results of a developed form-fit connection for NiTi SMAA.

This presentation by Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), A joint venture (JV) of PSUs under the Ministry of Power (MoP), Government of India gives an overview of EESL, its key business models and initiatives and a brief about EESL’s EV Program.
