Welcome to module four of this course. In this module, we will discuss about the future technology for electric vehicles.

What are the next big advances in electric vehicle technology? How does wireless charging technology work and how can we use it for charging electric car batteries? How does autonomous driving work and what are the various levels of vehicle autonomy? How can we smart charge electric vehicles from renewable sources of energy to make them even greener? How is the future for electric vehicles powered by means other than a battery like fuel cells and solar cells?

This module will provide you the answers to all the above questions and discuss many such interesting and trending topics. We will begin the module by discussing key emerging technologies for future electric vehicles focussing on the vehicle powertrain and battery and solar and fuel cell electric vehicles. Next, we will learn about the concepts of wireless charging of electric vehicles and about battery swap technology. In the last part, we will look why and how we can charge electric vehicles from renewable energy sources like wind and solar energy in the future.

And now, let’s dive straight into the content. Hope you have a successful learning experience!
