Abstract
There is an increasing awareness about the need to achieve a more sustainable mobility, both among specialists and in public opinion, and about the opportunities given by renewable sources. In last years, increasing efforts are being spent towards the application of solar energy to electric and hybrid cars, also thanks to the advances in photovoltaic technology and to their growing diffusion for stationary plants. Anyway, the possibility to apply solar energy to cars is still considered as a questionable issue in the automotive community. In this paper, a survey study on the past, present and future applications of solar energy to cars is presented and the main issues are discussed, also on the base of the research performed by the author on Hybrid Solar Vehicles.
