Abstract

Objective of this project is to study the energy and safety of Fuel Cell Vehicle (FCV) and Electric Vehicle (EV) and to study about Regenerative Braking System and show how Regenerative Braking System Function. A Fuel cell vehicle or FC vehicle (FCV) is a type of hydrogen vehicle which uses a fuel cell to produce its on-board motive power. Fuel cells create electricity to power an electric motor using hydrogen or a reformed hydrocarbon fuel and oxygen from the air. An electric vehicle (EV), also referred to as an electric drive vehicle, uses one or more electric motors for propulsion. Regenerative Braking System is an energy recovery mechanism which slows a vehicle by converting its kinetic energy into another form, which can be either used immediately or stored until needed. By studying the energy and safety of both vehicles, the best car must be chosen based on the comparison of energy and safety. Conclusion of this project is the Electric Vehicle (EV) is better compared to Fuel Cell Vehicle based on energy and safety comparison and how the Regenerative Braking System function is shown from the fabrication of Electric Bicycle with regenerative braking system.
