Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) (Clean & Fuel Saving Technology)



In present age automobiles are identified as one of the major causes of air pollution and energy depletion. Vehicles are also identified for their low efficiency in other words high-energy loss. Hybrid Electric Vehicles have the capacity to overcome these situations and bring a new revolution. Hybrid vehicle combine two or more sources of power directly or indirectly provides propulsion power. The gasoline electric hybrid vehicle is of crossbreed between a gasoline powered vehicle and electric vehicle. Hybrid vehicles run both with a rechargeable battery as well as gasoline. In a hybrid engine, gasoline power and power from a set of batteries transmits power to an electric motor. There are less adverse effects due to the Hybrid electric vehicles. The batteries used in hybrid vehicles are rechargeable Nickel metal hydride, Lead acid batteries and Lithium Polymer batteries are disposable which will not pose any toxic hazards to the atmosphere. The fact about hybrid vehicles is that the DC machine is that it can run both as a motor as well as a generator .In addition to this hybrid vehicles use a system that recovers power from the momentum of the vehicle when we apply brakes. The Hybrid vehicles are complicated machines when compared to their counterparts of the gasoline-powered vehicles. But due to higher efficiencies, lower emissions of hybrid vehicles gain the attention of the new ERA.
