Increases Demand for Electric vehicles

Plug-in electric vehicles (also known as electric cars or EVs) are connected, fun, and practical. They can reduce emission and even save your money.

Fueling with electricity offers some advantages not available in conventional internal combustion engine vehicles. Because electric motors react quickly, EVs are very responsive and have very good torque. EVs are often more digitally connected than conventional vehicles, with many EV charging stations providing the option to control charging from a smartphone app.

Less emission

Just like a smartphone, you can plug in your EV when you get home and have it ready for you to use the next morning. Since the electric grid is available almost anywhere, there are a variety of options for charging: at home, at work or on the road. By charging often, you may never need to go to a gas station again!

But EVs provide more than just individual benefits. EVs can help the United States have a greater diversity of fuel choices available for transportation. The U.S. used nearly nine billion barrels of petroleum last year, two-thirds of which went towards transportation. Our reliance on petroleum makes us vulnerable to price spikes and supply disruptions. EVs help reduce this threat because almost all U.S. electricity is produced from domestic sources, including coal, nuclear, natural gas, and renewable sources.

EVs can also reduce the emissions that contribute to climate change and smog, improving public health and reducing ecological damage. Charging your EV on renewable energy such as solar or wind minimizes these emissions even more.

Introduction to the Design Process

Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) Definition of Design - • Engineering design is the process of devising a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. • It is a decision-making process (often iterative), in which the engineering sciences and mathematics are applied to convert resources optimally to meet a stated objective. • Among the fundamental elements of the design process are the establishment of objectives and criteria, synthesis, analysis, construction, testing and evaluation. • Mechanical design means the design of components and systems of a mechanical nature—machines, products, structures, devices and instruments. • For the most part mechanical design uses mathematics, materials, and the engineering-mechanics sciences. • Additionally, it uses engineering graphics and the ability to communicate verbally to clearly express your ideas. • Mechanical engineering design includes all mechanical...

Initiatives launched by the Indian Government for Electric Vehicle or Promoting the Electric vehicle

Vehicular pollution is a major contributor to the rising levels of pollution in India. Electric vehicles have zero on-road emission and can minimise the production of greenhouse gasses. To promote the adoption of electric vehicles, the Department of Heavy Industry formulated the FAME India Scheme (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles in India) in 2015 for the initial period of two years, with the first phase starting in April. According to an official press release , the Phase-I of the Scheme was extended to March 2019. In this phase, about 280,000 hybrid and electric vehicles were supported by way of a demand incentive amounting to about IN 359 crores (about US $50.5 million). This resulted in saving around 50 million litres of fuel and the reduction of around 124 million kilograms of CO2. Phase-I saw the development of about 500 charging stations across the country. Also, Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL...
