IIT Guwahati develops technology to standardise electric vehicles for Indian conditions.

The Indian Institute of Technique (IIT) Guwahati has created a technology that ranks electric vehicle (EV) motors and batteries and recommends the optimum drivetrain components for the Indian scenario to original equipment manufacturers (OEM).

This is a one-of-a-kind system for standardising electronic cars based on Indian driving cycles.

Indian drive-cycles have not been considered by researchers so far. The developed drive cycles do not differentiate between rural and urban drive cycles. Electric vehicles currently on the market also fail to cater for India's diverse climatic conditions.

At the moment, no OEM is using this technology, but they have been asking Indian car drive-cycle data. The goal of this study is to develop better and more efficient drivetrains based on various locations. This is especially advantageous for new businesses. The goal of this study is to reduce pollutants and fuel consumption.

The recent fires in Ola e-scooters have also generated concerns about EV battery safety among Indians.

The team at IIT Guwahati worked on both rural and urban climatic conditions in India. They devised a mechanism for recommending the optimal drivetrain for production. The IIT Guwahati team's drive-cycles are one-of-a-kind and not found anyplace else.

In a dry NS cooler environment, an electrical drivetrain (a combination of components that give power to the drive wheels) created in a humid atmosphere does not perform the same. As a result, OEMs are already exploring developing standard drive-cycles for Indian circumstances.

"One of the most critical breakthroughs necessary for the country's sustainable development and reduction of carbon footprint is the development of next-generation energy-efficient EV technology. This advancement would enhance the procedure and improve the results "In a statement, IIT Guwahati director professor T. G. Sitharam stated.

"Our goal is to create a document that would allow new entrants into the EV market to compete on an equal footing. Another major benefit of this endeavour is that it is preparing the next generation of technocrats for a successful career in EV technology wherever in the world "Professor Praveen Kumar of the varsity's Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering led the research.

Because the current effort is just focused on two-wheelers, the researchers are also attempting to develop this technology for four-wheelers.
