Abstract
We are in the boom of technological revolution. From the construction of Planes by Wright Brothers to the construction of Telephone by Graham Bell, technology has been evolving over time. Karl Benz, is the one who invented the first automobile and from here many types of advanced vehicles have been developed over time and are continuing to be. However as some of us might be aware of, usage of vehicles is causing emissions of various waste products such as Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide. These emissions are responsible for global warming and pollution. However, during recent development we might be aware of the usage of Electric Vehicles to reduce these emissions. Interest in the usage of Electric Vehicles as transportation infrastructure is growing high due to the fear of peak oil crisis and due to the environmental impact of petroleum based vehicles. Electrical Vehicles use various resources that generate electricity for the power and battery or solar panels are in converting fuel to electricity.
