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

will an electric heater coil draw from a 220 volt line‚ if the resistance of the heater coil is 40? (1 Mark) (Ans) Given‚ R= 40‚ V=220 V We have the relation‚ I = V/R = 220/40 = 5.5 A 2. What is electric current? (1 Mark) (Ans) The rate of flow of charge per unit time through a conductor is called electric current. 3. What is the SI unit of electric current? (1 Mark) (Ans) The SI unit of electric current is ampere. It is denoted by the letter A. 4. What is the SI unit of electric charge

Hybrid cars are designed on running on both an electric motor and an internal combustion system‚ and Electric cars run entirely on electricity without having an internal combustion system. In fact‚ both of these cars contain a rechargeable battery that can be charged externally‚ which helps in reducing the usage of gasoline which can diminish air pollution and save the environment. For example‚ a recent study by Experian Automotive reports that 40% more hybrid cars were sold in the U.S. in 2012 than

all is electric fan and electric light. These two things have improved our living standard and also efficiency of work. Our houses‚ roads‚ offices and shops are lighted. It is difficult and sometimes impossible to work in an office where there is no light and fan. Students read comfortably in a room which is properly furnished with electric light and fan. Fan is not a luxurious thing. It is necessary to fight heat during summer. Electricity is essential to operate fan in summer and electric heater

electrons (in atoms) behave as though they were held by springs”.Feynman “In a microscopic but otherwise classical analysis‚ the electric field in electromagnetic radiation accelerates electrons held by springs in the atoms of a piece of glass‚ and these accelerated electrons re-radiate in all directions. The observed light is the superposition of the electric (and magnetic) fields of the incoming light and the re-radiation. In the backward direction we normally call the re-radiation "reflection
