Introduction Tesla‚ an electric vehicle company founded in California in 2003‚ has been attracting a lot of attention worldwide. Tesla focuses not only on producing luxury electric vehicles—it prides itself on being a high-tech brand known for its innovation and creativity. In and attempt to penetrate the Chinese market‚ Tesla unveiled its model S in 2013. Tesla initially expected Chinese consumers’ interest would be high and ambitious sales forecasts. However‚ Tesla’s entry into China has been

consumers have started to reconsider the usage of electric cars (Global EV Outlook‚ 2013). Electric Vehicles [EV] have been around since the 1830s‚ yet it is only recently that countries have experienced an increase in their production thus redefining tomorrow’s automobile and transportation industry. This year‚ the global production of EV is predicted to rise by 67% (IHS‚ 2014). 1.1 Market Trends According to the Green Car Guide (2014)‚ top Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) models include the BMW I3‚

Abstract Energy demand management or Demand Side Management (DSM) involves actions that influence the pattern of energy consumption by consumers. In this paper a fuzzy logic based approach towards shifting the average power demand of residential electric water heaters has been discussed. Power system demand side management programs are strategies designed to alter the shape of the load curve. This paper targets both customer satisfaction and utility unit commitment savings‚ based on a fuzzy load

OnLine Electric Vehicles (OLEV) - Wireless technology can now deliver electric power to moving vehicles. In next-generation electric cars‚ pick-up coil sets under the vehicle floor receive power remotely via an electromagnetic field broadcast from cables installed under the road. The current also charges an onboard battery used to power the vehicle when it is out of range. As electricity is supplied externally‚ these vehicles need only a fifth of the battery capacity of a standard electric car‚ and

Electricity gives a wide variety of well-known effects‚ such as lightning‚ static electricity‚ electromagnetic induction and the flow of electrical current. In addition‚ electricity permits the creation and reception of electromagnetic radiation such as radio waves. In electricity‚ charges produce electromagnetic fields which act on other charges. Electricity occurs because of the following‚ an electric charge‚ that is a property of some subatomic
