TASK 1Electric vehiclesElectric Vehicles are also called as EV (Electric vehicle) that uses electric motor toconvert the fuel into electric energy that helps in developing a most efficient tool to transport thepeople, things and resources from one place to anotehr. The Transport system can be consideredas the system that help in equipping the transport planning practitioner that helps in developing aefficient, sustainable, safe and affordable urban transport system. This will help in providing theproper infrastructure and road facilities that ensures the easy migration of people from one placeto another. So in order to develop a large network of interconnected roads that will help thepeople in migrating from one place to another will be termed as Transport system. This planningneed to be carefully concentrated and it requires a Proper CPD (continuing professionaldevelopment) that will help in enhancing the skills and abilities to understand the use oftechnology in order to develop the effective transport system. EVs are first came into existence in mid 19th century when electricity was one of thepreferred method to generate the energy to transport the material, people and resources from oneposition to another. These electric motors are provides the high level of comfort and ease whichhelp in migrating from one place to other destination (Alam, Ferreira and Fonseca, 2016). Theseare self-contained that generates the energy from solar panels, battery or electric generator. Withthe advancement of technology in 21st century, Evs can be viewed as a resurgence which usesrenewable energy to enhance the working of the such electronic vehicles to match this fastestgrowing technological world. HistoryThe concept of adopting electronic vehicles was started in 1827. it was developed at thetime when Hungarian Priest Anyos Jedlik introduced the first crude but viable electronic motor.This was used to provide the electric energy to tiny car in order to invent new electronic vehiclethat will help in developing an effective an efficient electronic car. In 1835, Professor SibrandusStraitingh built a small scale electric car so during that period only experimental electrical carsmoving on rails. Throughout that point of time, in 1835 Thomas Davenport Built a Toy electriclocomotive which is powered by a primitive electronic motor. After this invention, in 1838,Robert Anderson build a electronic Locomotive which covers a speed of 4 miles per hour. Thiswas the greatest invention till date that contributed a great idea towards the production of electric
vehicle with the advent of cheap assembly of line cars. There was a lack of storage batteries atthat time so it did not get much popularity whereas electric trains gained immense popularity dueto the achievement of fast speed and economies of invention. Initially electrified trains werefunctioned with the use of the coal as motors did not uses oxygen in the mines. A number ofdevelopments contributed to decline of electronic cars such as road infrastructure, use ofpetroleum, etc. with the improvement of road infrastructure finally ICE cars were established towhich were provides more easy and vehicle to operate over long distances.ExperimentationIn January 1990, president of General motors introduced two seater EV concept whichhad impacted greatly on the produced electronic cars that were already there to serve the largenumber of people (Barfield and Dingus, 2014). Then the success of oil and auto industries werethe main reason behind the public acceptance of Evs. Experimentation of the effective andaffordable transporting tools helps in eliminating the the role of auto-mobile manufacturers that uses oil, hydrogen and low powered batteries to limit the deployment and adoption of thetechnology.Sources to generate the Electricity in motorcarsThere are many ways to to generate electricity which vary in cost, efficiency andecological desirability to establish an effective transport that sustains for the longer time period.such sources are as follows:Connection to generate plant- This can be termed as the direct connection that help in generatingthe plants which is common among electronic trains, trolley buses, trucks etc. such vehiclescollect power from electric power strips which is mainly berried under road surface through theuse of electromagnetic inductionOnboard generator and Hybrid Evs: Generation of on-board using diesel engine that helps inproducing the diesel electric locomotive. A hybrid electrical vehicle combines a conventionalpower train with some form of electric propulsion. In April, 2016 over 11 million hybrid electricvehicles are sold after its inception in 1997. Japan is the leading seller of the world who havesold almost 5 million hybrid Evs. Advantages Electric vehicles releases no tail pipe air pollutant at the place at the place where they aregenerally operated (Engelbrecht and et.al., 2015). Such Evs generally generates less noise
pollution then an internal combustion engine vehicle weather such vehicles are at rest or inmotion. There are various advantages included in introduction of Electric vehicles such aredescribed below:Easier in the environment: Vehicles are usually special kind of charged batteries that helpin easy transporting of the material and sources. This result in silent and pollution freefree environment that does not harms the the society and do not releases the harmfulgases that affects people.Electricity is cheaper then gasoline: Electric vehicles uses gasoline that helps ingenerating the electric energy using the gasoline as a input source of energy. Thisgasoline costs higher then the electric batteries so nowadays technology found many easyideas that support the electrical vehicles in which less cost is compared.Maintenance is less expensive and less frequent: electric Vehicles are nowadays can beeasily affordable by the large number of people and thus can be maintained for the longertime period without investing the time and energy on the same Evs.This shortens the commute time: Introduction of the electric vehicles in the world havealso majorly contributed towards the growth of the successful and sustainable automobile industries that completes the tasks efficiently. EVs also help in performing theactivities within short span of time.Disadvantages of using electronic vehiclesMost EV's Have pretty short ranges: Electric batteries generally works through the savedenergy which is normally transmitted in the machines in the form if electric energy.These batteries are already charged by the companies and lives of such batteries isgenerally short.Recharging the batteries takes time: In case if one have to recharge the batteries again inorder to provide the same electrical functionalities then such activities consumes lot oftime in retransmitting such sources of energy in the same battery again (Guerrero-Ibanez,Zeadally and Contreras-Castillo, 2015).Initial investment is huge: Electrical vehicles uses electricity and and machines tofunction such machines so initially cost of maintaining such machines is very large.People have to invest huge money to purchase such types of vehicles.
Inconsistent availability of charging stations: electric vehicles can be functioned by theuse of small Integrated chips which are assigned different different tasks. All the smalltasks are integrated together to form a electric vehicle which ensures the transportationfrom one place to another. So it is not possible to find the charging stations every wherewhich restricts the growth of the Evs.latest trendsThe most promising trends and renewable trends for electric vehicles that are verypopular and trendy product that is generally used by large number of people. This is surlygaining momentum in the energy of the the electrical industries which populate the road inwithin the few years. Such trends which help in increasing the transporting industries are asfollows:Solar power: Solar cars are electric vehicles that are powered completely or significantlyusing solar energy (Hancock and Harrison, 2014). This helps in converting the sun;senergy directly into the electric energy.Brake charging: this can be charged with the use of electric power which needs moreconsumption of electric energy that helps in using the Electric vehicles that are consumeslarge amount of electric electric energy. This can be converted through the use ofgasoline which that provides energy to the batteries in order to function properly.Intelligent transport systemAn intelligent transport system (ITS) can be considered asan advanced applicationwhich mainly uses the AI which is aimed at achieving traffic management and providing theservices which is related to the different modes of transport. It also enables user to use smarter,coordinated and safer use of transport. This concept helps in transmitting the cities into digitalsociety which creates easy life of the citizens. HistoryIn this developing world, rural habitats are converted into urban habitats that havetransformed the society by adopting the use of latest technology as a part of their day to dayactivities. Earlier transportation systems are less effective which consumes lot of time to coverthe areas of miles that takes huge costs to reach at the desired places. Since 1995, automatedenforcement have been enforced which resulted in delayed transportation of goods and services
