Electric cars run on electricity. Unlike conventional vehicles that use a gasoline or diesel-powered engine, electric cars use an electric motor powered by electricity from batteries or a fuel cell. E cars are really a boon to our irritated environment because they avoid all the exhausted gas emissions that come from conventional diesel cars, thereby decreasing air pollutions.
Main advantages E cars over conventional petrol/diesel cars:
Lower running cost
Lower maintenance cost
Less moving parts compared to diesel cars-Just maintain the breaks, tires and suspension
Best for environment-zero exhaust emissions!
Decreased air pollutions benefits health
Improved safety-studies says it has lower center of gravity which makes them less likely to roll over
Importance of li-ion batteries in e-carsLithium ion batteries are most common type of batteries found in electric cars. They have higher power to weight ratio, high energy efficiency, and good high temperature performance. That means batteries hold more energy for their weight, so less weight means the car can travel longer on a single charge. That’s a vital factor for e cars. They also have low self-discharging rate which helps them to maintain the ability to hold gull charge over time.
How to charge an e car?
At home
Charging at home or work is possible through a standard electrical power point (240 volt AC / 15 amp electricity supply). The rate of charge will depend on the EV’s on-board charger – 2.5 kilowatts (kW) to 7 kW is usual. Dedicated EV charging units are another option for home. Check with the car manufacturer for the specific charging options available.
Public charging outlets
Publicly accessible ‘fast charger’ or ‘super charger’ outlets provide power to the battery at a faster rate. The rate of charge is usually from 25 kW to 135 kW and can recharge an EV battery in around 30 minutes.
