Abstract

Many automotive industries aim to limit their impact on the environment and transform the mobility of automobiles into a sustainable mode of transportation. Electric vehicles seem to be key milestones in this regard. This paper intends to introduce a “Charge as you drive”—a newly evolved concept that can be used to overcome limitations of existing electric vehicles and aid in better battery management. Wireless power involving a high-efficiency charging system that uses magnetic resonance coupling to generate electricity could revolutionize the highway transportation system. With this strategy, when using a fairly small battery pack, a vehicle effectively has a limitless electrical range, which can significantly reduce the consumption of oil. These coils are powered by graphene-based solar panels. As solar power is renewable, infinite, eco-friendly and also considered to be a form of energy that is much safer to use. Thus, by introducing the above-proposed solution in electric vehicles, the obstacles of charging range, time, and cost can be easily mitigated.
