Over exploitation of fossils fuel to meet humans luxurious in present day life has created imbalance in the ecosystem so to have a balance “Green revolution” is required. It means that there is need of using renewable energy resources instead of non-renewable energy which do not harm the environment and also does not contribute in increasing carbon footprint. In context to this each and every sector in the world is adopting alternative resources (renewable energy) to reduce somehow the degradation of environment so that the ecosystem can be balanced and healthy livelihood is achieved. Seeing the condition of the global environment many researchers are attempting to find technological advances which can efficiently transform this renewable energy into mechanical energy in that they have succeeded India has abundance of resource of renewable energy; amongst them solar energy is available with minimum limitation and in abundance. If transportation sector shifts to renewable energy utilization, a good amount of green house gases(GHG) can be minimized. This paper exemplifies the cases of solar electric vehicles including solar cars, solar e–rickshaws, solar tricycles, solar buses and solar vans, that have been successfully implemented in India. These examples demonstrate that the solar electric vehicles can transform a future scenario on a larger scale for India and also other countries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
