Paper Title
ELECTRIC VEHICLE MODELLING FOR FUTURE TECHNOLOGY AND MARKET PENETRATION ANALYSIS
Abstract
Increasing the use of electric vehicles (EVs) has been offered as a double option to decrease fuel energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), in a wide effort to mitigate the bad environmental impact and climate change. Recently, the EV industry has been known as a huge development. This paper covers a broad array of subjects linked to EV technology, such as the main categories of these vehicles and their technical characteristics: fuel energy economy, environmental impact and market evolution. Particularly, three principal categories of EV, mainly hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in electric vehicles (PHEVs) and battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are presented in detail. Moreover, the present paper analyzes and compares these types of vehicles and both summarizes and discusses the recent advancements and challenges of EV technology. We can conclude that HEVs can play an important part in preparing for the transition to fully EVs. The progress at the battery level will accelerate this transition as long as issues of autonomy, durability, and cost are resolved.
