Abstract


Any equipment without power is an idle bunch of components.  It is very prominent with those dependable upon the non-renewable sources.  It’s a pro-active approach to shift our source of energy to renewable source.  This paper details the study of designing a Solar Powered BLDC Motor Driven Electric Vehicle which is one of the solutions for the oncoming crisis.  The approach of selecting the appropriate components for this application is studied and each of them are simulated and subjected to various tests in real time environment.  The integrated system consisting of the solar module, charge controllers, batteries, boost converter and BLDC motor, henceforth developed into the Solar Powered Electric Vehicle.
