This thesis brings in a solution for effective integration of the solar photovoltaic and thermal technologies with the EV industry to minimise carbon emission. The integration of the solar PV panels on EV rooftop and thermal collectors in the manufacturing section of the EV industry is considered as the first and second research objectives respectively.

This paper focuses on the current state of EVs in India and the policies implemented in Tamil Nadu to make EVs more accessible to people. The paper also addresses global EV scenarios as well as the Indian government's EV policies.

New car registrations continued to increase in July, going from 1.1 million in June 2020 to almost 1.3 million in July 2020—about the same level as in July 2019.

The case study shows that a lack of EV supply is the biggest barrier to faster progress for 79% of EV100 members up by a third from 2019.

This review paper summarizes state-of-the-art studies of smart charging considering PV power production and electricity consumption. The main aspects of smart charging reviewed are objectives, configurations, algorithms and mathematical models.

The required annual efficiency improvements for passenger vehicles in Canada are scheduled to weaken from 5% to 1.5% for model years 2021 to 2026.

In the global trend of electric mobility faster development approaches are required for reducing time-to-market. These approaches include agile product development and building prototypes at earlier stages in the development process.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are the most sought-after of the various battery compositions available today for use in electric vehicles (EVs).

This study focuses on improving the inverter drive induction motor's operating efficiency for electric vehicles. The frequency is changed from 5 Hz to 100 Hz to control the vehicle speed. Characteristics of the inverter control induction motor drive are established in this paper.

The paper aims at critically analyze weaknesses, strengths and application fields of the electric mobility in Italy. Specifically, the electric vehicle today has high production costs, low autonomy and not “zero” environmental impacts deriving from the production, motion and recycling of the vehicle.
