Technological Developments Reducing Range Anxiety for Electric Vehicles
Summary
GlobalData's report “Technological Developments Reducing Range Anxiety for Electric Vehicles” provides an analysis on how technology developments in electric vehicle industry are helping to reduce the range anxiety of owners of electric vehicles. Range anxiety is the fear of running out of power due to depleted battery before reaching the destination and stems from worries related to the long charging processes, poor battery performances and inaccessible charging infrastructures. Due to the limitations of current battery technology and the lack of widespread charging infrastructure, electric vehicles are largely used for commuting within the city limits and are not used for long journeys. Drivers are mostly concerned about failing to reach their destination in case the power supplied by the battery becomes insufficient. However, this concern can be reduced by improving battery technology, installing next generation charging stations, expanding the charging infrastructure and by using extended range electric vehicles. The forthcoming advancements in battery technology, charging stations and electric vehicles are likely to diminish range anxiety among electric vehicle drivers.
