GLOBAL JOURNAL OFENGINEERINGSCIENCE ANDRESEARCHES STUDY AND EVALUATION OF FEASIBILITY OF WIND TURBINE FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE

The use of electrical vehicle is eminent in view of climate change word while. The electrical vehicle can be charged either by plug in technology or on board charging by suitable renewable energy technologies. This paper evaluates different types of wind turbine technologies in accordance with its cost and efficiency and optimizes further the type of wind turbine technologies for utilization in electrical vehicles. It is further stated that there is need to modify the forms of existing electrical vehicles for uses of such new technologies. The paper further reviews that the modified horizontal axis wind turbine are best suited for electrical vehicle applications, with the objective of low cost considerations
