Present and Future Challenges of Electric and Hybrid Electric Vehicles Battery

Now a days air pollution produced by use of petroleum products are major concern. Majority of this pollution is from automobile with Internal Combustion engines. So there will be a major shift from Internal Combustion engines to zero emission vehicle. In near future, because most of the countries including India are now trying to reduce air pollution due to global warming and climate changes. Most of the automobile manufacturers are now producing hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), because the current battery technology is capable of producing hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). But they are not a permanent solution as they only reduce the amount of pollutants. Electric vehicles (EVs) are Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEVs). But current battery technology are not capable of producing Electric Vehicles (EVs) which can compete with current gerenation automobiles. In this paper we are discussing about the current scenario and future trends in automobile battery technology in a broad manner.
