Abstract:

India emits around 3 Giga tonnes of CO2 and other greenhouse gases per year. Nearly 25% of this emission occurs due to each and every types of road transport vehicles. In this work, the estimation of the actual CO2 emission of a conventional IC engine vehicle and an electric vehicle have been studied in different phases and those vehicles are in same segmented also. How much time it would be taken in order to convert an electric vehicle in to a Green Vehicle (GV) also been studied. In this work, the authors compare two similar SUV’s in there same segment one is Electric Vehicle (EV) and another is conventional IC Engine Vehicle (ICV). Both the cars have very similar power output; torque and design in there segment. Although there are many options of fast charging, long refuelling or recharging time is a major problem of the EV but this is not the concern study. In science each and every innovation has one good and a bad side, and there is no exception about the EVs also. CO2 emissions will be reduced if we switch to renewable energy sources, and it will take less time to make it environmentally sustainable.
