Our nuclear plant is like a river that meets the ocean, supplying power to the larger electric power grid that provides electricity across North America,” Ansari says. This month she is leading a project to swap out a damaged exciter, an alternator producing an AC current that is then converted to DC through rectifiers.

2 Hello sir, the video was very useful…I am planning to do an MTech project on the EV …as hardware will be the most difficult part… I’m getting confused about the topics… Would you please suggest some topics that would match the MTech level without hardware… thank you. Thank you so much for your feedback.

The power electronics are effectively a link that controls the flow of high-voltage energy between the motor and the battery. The power electronics convert the direct current (DC) stored in the battery into alternating current (AC). Meanwhile, a DC/DC converter supplies the onboard electronics with 12-volt power.

One roadblock for gas-powered vehicle owners looking to switch to electric vehicles (EVs) is the time it takes to charge an EV. And while drivers who already own EVs actually report that they don’t mind charge-time , it is difficult to convince would-be converts to change their driving and fueling routine.

However, the worldwide demand for energy is expected to increase by 20 percent in 10 years, with a large majority of that demand supplied by sustainable energy sources like wind power. These networks include cables that connect wind farms to the shore and supply electricity to our power grid infrastructure (Figure 3).
