Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology  ·  Area of research: ELECTRIC MOBILITY

Abstract

There is an increase in demand of converting the automobile industry to electro automobile industry due to various reasons like increase in environmental pollution and the raise in cost of the fuels for internal combustion engines. With the conversion into electrical vehicles various problems arises some of them were high charging time for the battery in battery powered electric vehicles, limitations to the range of vehicle per charge etc., To overcome these drawbacks, the fuel cell electric vehicle which is powered by the electrical power produced from the fuel cell. In this fuel cell electric vehicle there is no limitation for the range of electric vehicle. It is very high just like conventional internal combustion engines and there is no need to charge the vehicle since power is directly produced in the vehicle which is similar to ICE vehicles. This paper deals with the introduction to fuel cells, types of fuel cells and fuels used in them and it also gives clear calculation of energy from the fuel cell so that it meets the energy demand of electric vehicle by calculating the energy requires by the electric vehicle. Further, it states the main pros of fuel cell electric vehicles when compared with the battery packed electric vehicles
