2. How does an electric car work?
An electric car basically consists of an electric motor, a controller and a battery. When the car is turned on, the current passes from the battery to the controller, in charge of transferring the electrical energy to the motor, which transforms it into mechanical energy to move the car. The controller manages the supplying power to the motor. The variable potentiometers are connected between the accelerator and the controller and tell you how much energy to deliver according to the pressure the driver gives the accelerator. When the pedal is released the energy requirement is zero and consequently the car stops. When the accelerator is pushed all the way in, it provides the maximum output to the car.
The battery packs, mostly lithium-ion, are under the vehicle and sometimes in the trunk. They are used, in addition to delivering power to the engine, for the operation of wipers and lights and other electrical outputs inside the car. Apart from the engine and operation, almost everything else is like that of internal combustion cars, such as air conditioning, brakes, transmission systems and airbags.

The electric car and the thriller of the year 2020
By using clean energy instead of fossil fuel, the electric car is the most effective tool to meet the main objective of the Paris Agreement, such as limiting the increase in global warming to 2°C from its pre-industrial level. For this, the transcendental document indicates that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions must be reduced until they are totally eliminated. As more electric cars are added to the planet’s traffic, global warming will be mitigated…

Electromobility and the fight against climate change
By relying on the substitution of fossil fuels for clean energies, with zero emissions of greenhouse gases, the electric car is in direct line with the Paris Agreement. The silent and decarbonised car is the hope of a world without smog, noise or gases that increase disease and global warming. The great transformation of the automobile industry was reflected by a representative of…
