Power Electronics in Electric and Hybrid Vehicles 2014 Report by Yole Develo...Yole Developpement
A $16B market by 2023, a change of business model, and significant technical changes: how will electric and hybrid vehicles change the power electronics industry?
EV/HEV MARKET: A BURGEONING MARKET FULL OF PROMISES AND UNCERTAINTIES
Electric and hybrid vehicles have been presented as a huge market over the last few years, but in 2013 only 100K 100% electric vehicles were sold, and only 2M EV/HEV cars in total. For 2014, technological and architectural upgrades have been made and are ready to deploy, but the most important need is still to convince the end-user to change their habits and transition to an EV/HEV.
Charging infrastructure development, battery cost reduction and power density increase are pushing the EV/HEV market forward. Moreover, as the market grows and the technology develops, the price difference between EV/HEV vehicles and gas-powered vehicles will progressively shrink, thus further accelerating EV/HEV market advancement. Also, governmental restrictions on CO2 output are becoming increasingly aggressive worldwide (58mpg for the United States in 2025, and in 2020 for Europe). For all of these reasons, we expect end-users to be swayed by electric energy’s low cost and governmental incentives, making the EV/HEV market very attractive. In this report you will find a detailed analysis of markets by type, as well as an analysis of the positive and negative trends impacting the EV/HEV market.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
WRI’s brand new “Food Service Playbook for Promoting Sustainable Food Choices” gives food service operators the very latest strategies for creating dining environments that empower consumers to choose sustainable, plant-rich dishes. This research builds off our first guide for food service, now with industry experience and insights from nearly 350 academic trials.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

9. Q & A
3. • E-mobility: Electric Mobility
• EV: Electric Vehicles
• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) definition of an EV - a vehicle propelled by an electric
motor drawing current from a rechargeable storage battery or from other portable energy storage devices
(rechargeable, using energy from a source off the vehicle such as a residential or public electric service)
Types of electric vehicles
• battery electric vehicles - BEVs, which comprise a battery, an electric motor, and power electronics to make
these operate
• plug-in hybrid electric vehicles - PHEVs, which in addition to the same motor and battery system on a BEV,
have an on-board petroleum-fuelled engine that can be used as well as, or instead of, the electric motor and
battery to provide additional power and/or additional range.
• EVs come in all shapes and sizes
passenger cars
buses
trucks
boats
motorised 2- and 3- wheelers
e-bikes & e-scooters.
INTRODUCTION TO EVs
4. KEY COMPONENTS OF EVs
BATTERY
• EV Batteries are DC while charging is from AC [converter]
• Advance in EVs = Advances in technology / Batteries:
Nissan Leaf in 2010 ran at 110 km on one charge
Latest model now have a range of 300 km or more.
PHEVs smaller battery capacity —commonly with an
all-electric range of only 40-50km — but supplemented
with a petroleum-fuelled engine
30% more efficient than comparable non-hybrid vehicles
Battery capacity of 24 kWh charging at a rate of 1.7kW
would take about 14 hrs
Nowadays there are fast charging at 50kW and ultra
rapid at 350kW
e-bikes and e-scooters are charged at as little as 2A from
a supply of 230V AC – a fraction of the draw from an
electric kettle (for comparison, a normal domestic socket
outlet is rated at 10A).
5. KEY COMPONENT S OF EVs
BATTERY
The availability of advanced battery technologies has
presented the market with many electric vehicle
options, from electric push scooters to large trucks:
•Larger-sized electric push-scooters
•E-bikes
•e-Two-wheelers
•Motorised tricycles
•electric passenger cars
6. KEY COMPONENTS OF EVS
BATTERY
• EV batteries are increasingly similar to RE batteries
• When EV batteries are depleted beyond the point at
which it can offer useful range, it will commonly be
re-purposed as an electricity supply storage battery
and enjoy a “second life” in this role
7. KEY COMPONENT S OF EVs
BATTERY
electric trucks
• is still emerging
Electric bus
• technology is more advanced than for trucks
• due to the impetus provided by the Chinese market. The availability of ultra-fast charging means that
individual buses can get away with smaller onboard batteries, which means
• projects involving multiple buses / bus fleets are less expensive compared to projects involving small
numbers of buses - costly on a per-bus basis
• which means this technology would only be viable for the largest of cities of PoM, Suva, Honiara and Port
Vila, etc.
• any such project would need to be heavily subsidised in its early years.
marine vessels
• does not appear financially attractive apart from small, slow-speed vessels operating in close, inshore
waters
• an opportunity to retrofit small fishing vessels with electric propulsion and to charge these using simple,
low-voltage solar generation systems.
• small vessels used to ferry tourists could also be electrified.
8. KEY COMPONENT S OF EVs
ELECTIRC MOTORS
• electric motors can be more than 90% energy
efficient, compared with combustion engines, which
range from 10% - 30% energy efficient in typical
automotive use
• Diesel generators operate at 40% efficiency and
above as compared to vehicular diesel motors
• EVs basically transfer the load from the less efficient
diesel-powered vehicle to the more efficient diesel
power generator
• More benefits if power system in largely RE-based
and EVs are charged from a RE-based power source
• Importance of working together with the Power
Utility
9. EVs AND THE POWER UTILITIES
• Battery Charging
• balancing the provision of peak capacity with the
cost to do so.
• “smart meters” or “Time of Use” metering can offer
advantageous prices for charging at times that suit
the demand profile
10. EVs AND THE PACIFIC ISLANDS
• Heavy dependence of the region on fossil fuel
• Major fossil fuel users / GHG emissions are electricity generation and transportation
• Tonga INDC 2015
• Energy (electricity generation), transport and agriculture
• NDC Reviews and Enhancement

14. OTHER REGIONAL TRANSPORT PLAYERS
• PIDF
• USP & the Micronesia Centre for Sustainable Transport
• SPC & MTCC
15. 4th PETMM Direction
• Request SPC/PCREEE, UNIDO and SIDS DOCK to develop a regional policy document outlining the
short-term and long-term vision of PICTs with regard to integrated e-mobility and renewable energy power
markets. It will propose regional e-mobility targets for the PICTs region by 2030 and 2050 and include a
regional implementation framework with concrete priority actions.
• Request SPC/PCREEE, UNIDO and SIDS DOCK to develop a regional e-mobility program. The
program will address existing barriers by promoting regional interventions in the areas of (i) policy and
regulation, (ii) knowledge management, (iii) qualification/certification, as well as (iv) the promotion of
investment, entrepreneurship and innovation.
• Request SPC/PCREEE, UNIDO and SIDS DOCK to promote SIDS-SIDS cooperation and exchange on integrated
e-mobility and renewable energy power systems under the umbrella of the Global Network of Regional
Sustainable Energy Centres (GN-SEC) - https://www.gn-sec.net/
• Three Reports: Technical Background, Regional Policy & Regional Programme
https://www.pcreee.org/event/online-validation-regional-e-mobility-policy-and-program-pacific-islands
16. Diversity in the PICTs
• Wealth - US$1500 for Kiribati to above $30,000 for Guam and
Nouvelle-Calédonie
• Urbanisation - below 20% for PNG above 90% for American Samoa
• Road infrastructure
• Vehicle fleet
• Electricity market
• Fuel market - tank-tainers”, drums, tank farms

2. Tuvalu’s Electric Motorcycles for pilot program under the Tuvalu
Energy Sector Development Project
3. Consistent with, strengthen and improve
4. Package needs of multiple countries
5. Flexible, leave no one behind
18. Stages in the introduction and uptake of new
technology
• Availability of sufficiently matured technology for the market
• Uptake by enthusiasts – rich and famous, Ministries & Boards
• Uptake by earlier adopters
• Normalisation of the technology
• Mainstream (national scale take up)
Sector capability and capacity is required to run in parallel with the growth in
order to provide he necessary supporting systems, including:
• Maintaining safety
• Maintenance
• Charging
• First response in case of accident
19. Barriers to E-mobility
EVs are new to PICTs and there are many
barriers with associated with this “newness””
including:
• a lack of mandate to drive EV policy (opportunities
in the revisions of NDCs and Energy Roadmaps);
• a lack of supporting institutional and regulatory
framework
• LTAs deal mostly with vehicle registration while
MoI/MoT deal with roads and bridges and Police deals
with enforcing the traffic laws.
• In some countries, EVs do not fall into any of the vehicle
categories, making it difficult to register them.
• Duty is based on engine size and no regards to the fuel
type
• absence of standards is a safety hazards and could
ruin the reputation of the technology
• a lack of charging infrastructure
• a lack of technical support capability and capacity
• a general lack of awareness of EVs (& market
access).
