Examining the Benefits of Hybrid Solar Systems for the Production of Sustainable Energy
Abstract: A state-of-the-art energy solution, the hybrid solar system combines solar photovoltaic (PV) panels and solar thermal collectors to provide an effective and flexible method of capturing solar energy. The hybrid solar system maximises the use of sunshine to produce energy and heat concurrently by integrating two technologies. While solar thermal collectors catch solar heat energy and transform it into useful thermal energy for a variety of purposes, solar PV panels …

A Review on Mechanical Behavior of Lithium Ion Batteries for Electric Vehicles
Abstract: The current automobile industries are much dependent on conventional petroleum fuels like petrol, diesel etc. which are creating many environmental issues due to combustion reactions and generation of carbon dioxide. This continues use of conventional fuels leads to either increasing the price of it and vanishing of its resources in future. Considering this pure battery based electric vehicle or electric vehicle with hybridize combination of battery and any other energy …
