Enhancing Battery Life of Electric Vehicle with Super-capacitor

In recent years, there has been a significant increase in interest in developing battery technology and Electric Vehicles (EVs). Despite significant developments in battery technology, current batteries are still insufficient to completely meet the energy requirements of EV electricity demand. One of the key reasons for concern is non-monotonic energy consumption, which is followed by frequent variations throughout the battery depletion phase. This effect jeopardizes the battery’s electrochemical process seriously. This work highlights the use of a battery in conjunction with a super-capacitor, which functions similarly to an electrochemical cell since it has better rate capability and enhanced cyclability. Super-capacitors are becoming more and more popular since it is an alternative to conventional battery sources. The result shows that Super-capacitors with electrochemical batteries are adaptable for giving uninterrupted power supply. To extend battery life, this paper shows a novel system that starts a DC motor in parallel with a super-capacitor and a battery. The Super Capacitor is incorporated into the battery-powered system to adopt the highest power output necessary for the load and it also increases the battery’s lifespan.
