Abstract
The technology of electric vehicles (EV) is conventionally using battery to
operate the motor. However it has one major disadvantage on energy storage
capacity. Basically the battery needs to be recharged every day at the charging
station which usually takes hours to fully charged. In this paper, the concept of
battery charging using the hybrid PV-Wind for electric vehicles energy source
is presented. The prototype of photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy harvesting
has been developed to overcome this problem in the most effective way. This
prototype will harvest the energy from both PV and wind to recharge the
battery in electric vehicles so that the car can travel in longer time and
distance. Three experiments have been conducted to analyze the best system
namely PV system, wind generator system and hybrid PV wind system. Based
on the experiment that has been carried out, it can be concluded that the hybrid
PV wind system is the best compared to the other two because the current
generated by hybrid PV wind is the highest which is 1A compared to 0.51A by
PV system and 0.67A by wind system, respectively. The high current value is
significantly means that the time taken to fully charge the battery is faster and
this will lead to decrease the time used for the charging process.
