Review on EV: Scope, Challenges and Role of Engineers

Abstract

Abstract: Nowadays we are looking for economic development that is conducted without depletion of natural resources. Taking this into account the main motive of today’s automotive industry is to reduce the use of contemporary automobiles and introduce renewable energy into the transportation sector. Vehicles running on natural gases are widely used in India in the public transport sector and taxis. The next revolution is expected in Electric Vehicles. Governments promote the use of EVs in private and public sector transportation by providing subsidies and other facilities. The scope of EVs in the Indian automobile market is increasing day by day. But along with that EV manufacturers and users are facing some challenges like battery charging time, temperature aspects, and higher manufacturing costs. This paper includes a review of the challenges and possible solutions. The role of engineers in the EV industry put forward so many opportunities to aspiring engineers. the role of different engineering streams is reviewed in this paper.
