Abstract

In the current scenario, global warming is a threat to the society. One of the major reasons is the release of carbon-di-oxide from an automobile exhaust due to the combustion of fossil fuels which pollutes the environment. One of the optimistic solutions for this problem is to use of hybrid vehicles. Generally, Hybrid vehicle involves a combination of transmission system driven through electrical, solar as well as internal combustion (IC) engine. This work involves hybridization with solar power and conventional power IC engine. Hence it is called a Hybrid Solar Vehicle (HSV). It can be driven both on internal combustion engines as well as on solar energy assisted with electrical motor. In real life applications using solar vehicle produces zero emissions. At present, hybrid electric vehicles are being developed and launched into the market. For long distance travelling its necessary of periodic charging of their batteries, so these vehicles are depends the electrical sources also leads to increase the cost of electricity. These kinds of problems will be solved by using hybrid solar vehicle also HSV supporting to the green environment.
