The exhaust emissions of the conventional Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles are the major source of air pollution in the cities. Use of ICE vehicles aggravates the depletion of global oil deposits, environmental and health issues. To realize a low-carbon society, electric vehicles are becoming more popular. Electric vehicles (EVs) offer an alternative to hybrid and conventional vehicles by using electric motor drive without diesel / petrol consumption. Ft. Ms. Poonam Gupta & Dr. Robindro Lairenlakpam - Scientists CSIR Indian Institute of Petroleum A prototype of EV Retrofit kit has been developed for conversion of existing diesel/gasoline small cars into zero fuel, zero emission Electric Vehicle. With the kit two old Maruti cars (800 & Zen model) were converted into EV's. The prototype kit has been developed with a vision for indigenization and import substitution (Aatma Nirbhar) of EV sub system. A multi-source hybrid charging station has also been set-up. With the help of CSIR-NAL, CSIR-IIP has carried out a study to demonstrate laboratory scale Renewable Hybrid Energy System(ReHES) for electricity generation. The working demo unit of ReHES at CSIR-IIP campus comprises biogas-wind-solar energy systems with a prototype hybrid controller. The unit is being used for EV charging. The total power generation capacity of existing ReHES is 17KW. #ev #electricvehicle #evcars #electricvehiclechargingstation #lithiumionbattery #entrepreneur #indianstartup #indianev #electricvehicles #nitingadkari #narendramodi #makeinindia #atmanirbharbharat Follow us on Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/climapreneur/
