Electric Vehicle Technologies: Trends, Control, and Charging Solutions explores the latest innovations transforming electric transportation. 

This concise and accessible volume presents advances in electric vehicle (EV) systems, focusing on solar energy integration, intelligent motor control, battery charging technologies, and IoT-based applications. The book is divided into three thematic sections. It begins with solar-powered charging systems and hardware design for sustainable mobility.

It then covers power electronics and motor control methods, including BLDC control and adaptive charging frameworks. The final section addresses cutting-edge developments like vehicle-to-grid (V2G) systems and IoT-enabled EV automation. 

Key Features:

  • Advances in solar EV charging and wireless power transfer.
  • Control strategies for EV motors and battery charging. 
  • Integration of IoT and autonomous systems in EVs. 
  • Hardware designs for electric bicycles and solar charging stations. 
  •  V2G systems and adaptive power control.
