摘要

Emissions from transportation are the primary cause of global warming. Fuel prices have skyrocketed, necessitating a massive hunt for an alternative. Promoting electric cycling will lower CO2 emissions as well as gasoline costs. The objective of this paper is to develop a hybrid bicycle that utilizes solar power as an additional energy source. This e-vehicle is powered by renewable energy from solar and a battery, with manual pedaling energy serving as a holdup energy source when solar and battery power are unavailable. Between the photovoltaic (PV) panel and the battery terminals, a cutting-edge DC–DC converter known as the Super-Lift DC–DC Converter (SLC) is used to assure battery charging stability. The suggested SLC's key characteristic is that it keeps the output voltage ripple free, which improves the battery's efficiency. Unlike standard DC–DC converters, the suggested SLC uses the maximum power point (MPPT) approach to operate the E-bicycle. The cost of running this electric cycle is cheaper. The projected average bike speed is between 15 and 20 km per hour. As a result, hybrid bicycles have emerged as an important and low-cost option.
