7. Types of Regenerative Braking
System:
Regenerative Braking System in Hybrid
Electrical Vehicles (HEVs)
Regenerative Braking System in
Electrical Vehicles (EVs)
8. System:
1) In HEVs :
HEVs consists of both IC Engine and an electric
motor for the movement of vehicles.
9. 2) In Electrical Vehicles (EVs)
EVs runs only with the help of Electric Motor.
10. Applications:
Regenerative Braking System is used to recover
lost Kinetic energy of the vehicle.
Regenerative Braking System can also be applied
for locomotives/trains.
11. Indian cars like Maruti Suzuki Ciaz and Mahindra
e2o are presently using Regenerative Braking
System.
Companies like TESLA, TOYOTA and other top
foreign brands are using Regenerative Braking
System.
15. Conclusion:
The regenerative braking system used in the
vehicles satisfies the purpose of saving a part
of the energy lost during braking.
The results from some of the test conducted
show that around 30% of the energy delivered
can be recovered by the system.
Hence regenerative braking system proves
itself as an effective and futuristic method to
save energy in the upcoming era of Electric
Cars.
