The Economics of Electric Vehicles
Review of Environmental Economics and Policy, 2021Electric vehicles (EVs) powered by renewable electricity are a centerpiece of efforts to decarbonize transportation. EV advocates also claim benefits from local pollution reductions, lower life-cycle costs to consumers, and improved energy security. We examine the theory and evidence behind these claims and evaluate when the market will produce the ...

Introduction to Electric Vehicles and Hybrid Electric Vehicles
2021Passenger vehicles are an essential part of everyone’s life, yet their exhaust fumes are a major source of urban pollution that contributes to the greenhouse effect, which leads to climate change. The world’s dependency on oil as the primary source of energy for passenger vehicles has economic and political ramifications, and the situation will ...

An Overview of Electric Motors for Electric Vehicles [PDF]
2021 31st Australasian Universities Power Engineering Conference (AUPEC), 2021 Electric motors are one of the key building blocks of electric vehicles (EVs). The electric motor is drawing particular attention due to the variety of topologies that can be chosen as candidates for EV applications. Through the proper motor type selection and design, the performance of EVs can be enhanced, such as efficiency and stability.

Marketing of electric vehicles [PDF]
Business Strategy and the Environment, 2001 Substituting electric vehicles for traditional ones could reduce local pollution and greenhouse emissions from the transportation system. However, these societal benefits come at high costs to the owner of the EV in terms of price, driving range, availability, loading capacity, speed and acceleration.

Electrical safety of electric vehicles
2017 IEEE/IAS 53rd Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Technical Conference (I&CPS), 2017This paper discusses fundamental electrical safety issues, and the protection against electric shock of persons interacting with electric vehicles. The safety of users may be challenged by the vehicle's increased operating voltages, at different frequencies, possibly making more complex the protection against direct and indirect contacts.

IEEE Spectrum, 1992
The renewed interest in electric vehicles (EVs) in the wake of the California Air Resources Board mandate that 2% of the vehicles lighter than 3750 lb (1700 kg) sold by each manufacturer in that state in 1998 be zero-emission vehicles is examined. The reasons why replacing an internal combustion vehicle (ICV) with an electrically powered equivalent ...

Prospects for electric vehicles
IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, 1990The state-of-the-art of electric vehicles (EVs) is discussed with examples of prototype vehicles-Electric G-Van, Chrysler TEVan, Eaton DSEP, and Ford/GE ETX-II. The acceleration, top speed, and range of these electric vehicles are delineated to demonstrate their performance capabilities, which are comparable with conventional internal combustion engine

Annales de Chimie Science des Matériaux, 2001
Abstract In urban areas, due to their beneficial effects on the environment, electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles are an important factor for the improvement of traffic and more particularly for a healthier environment. We are quite rapidly reaching the end of the cheap oil era. This could happen around 2010 and

Batteries for Electric and Hybrid-Electric Vehicles
Annual Review of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, 2010Batteries have powered vehicles for more than a century, but recent advances, especially in lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, are bringing a new generation of electric-powered vehicles to the market. Key barriers to progress include system cost and lifetime, and derive from the difficulty of making a high-energy, high-power, and reversible ...
