摘要

This research work presents the design and optimization of a hybrid solar-powered vehicle with 2 batteries in order to address the shortcomings of conventional electric vehicles (EVs). Conventional EVs work on a single battery that consumes a large number of recharges from outside power sources and limits the efficiency and utility of its practical usage. The model charges the primary battery using solar energy while maintaining another backup unit to ensure non-stop operation even in situations with less sunlight or night-time operation. The intelligent control system dynamically manages the energy flow between the solar-charged and backup batteries according to the energy availability and driving conditions. Real-world testing has confirmed the applicability of this dual-battery configuration and proved that the whole setup works consistently under the climatic variation conditions of solar energy. It is the peak to which society shall reduce its reliance on external power grids, maximizing the use of renewable energy. Prototype illustrates the potential of solar-powered vehicles towards sustainable transport. The study also discusses future improvements that can be made to make the technology more efficient, dependable, and practical for everyday applications, which is a major milestone towards greener and more efficient solutions for transportation.
