Abstract

In the current world scenario of increasing environmental issues and oil prices, development of Electric Vehicles (EV) have gained considerable importance and attention. Electrifying the conventional transportation system can reduce the use of depleting fossil fuels and can lead to better performance and reduced pollution. Power electronics will play a key role in making highly efficient electric vehicles which are low in emissions and having better fuel economy. This paper presents a review of the stateof- the-art power electronics technology in electric vehicles in detail focusing both semi-conductor devices as well as material technology. Also it discusses about the various power electronics systems placed in an electric vehicle. The paper concludes with a discussion of expected future trends in power electronics technology that will improve the markets for electric vehicles in coming years.
