Abstract


Solar power is produced by collecting sunlight and converting it into electricity. This is done by using solar panels, which are large flat panels made up of many individual solar cells. It is most often used in remote locations, although it is becoming more popular in urban areas as well. Solar energy is the renewable energy. Solar powered e-rickshaw can be described as the application of solar energy to power an electric motor rotates a blade which moves the wheel of the e-rickshaw. It is a low maintenance, low running cost, eco-friendly and non-polluting product and can be used for all kinds of personal mobility solutions. Pollution is marinade and can be seen in own homes. In case of gas powered rickshaw, emission of gases it is responsible for pollution and also the cost of fuel is increasing hence it is not efficient. To reduce the dependence upon fossil fuels and the air pollution from gas powered rickshaw. It has been suggested as a way to replace bicycles in India with vehicles that will enable carriers to travel farther and carry more at a lower cost.
KEYWORDS: battery electric vehicle; auto rickshaw; recharging infrastructure; energy storage; renewable energy
