GUWAHATI: The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati has developed a technology that rates the motors and batteries of electric vehicles and suggests to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM), the best drivetrain components for the Indian scenario.
“This is a unique method of its kind which standardises the electronic vehicles based on Indian drive-cycles,” the IIT Guwahati claims.
This research aims to create better and more efficient drivetrains (a group of components that deliver power to the drive wheels) based on different regions and is also beneficial for startups.
Further, the new technology focuses on reducing emissions and fuel consumption.
Director of IIT Guwahati TG Sitharam said, “The development in the field of next-generation energy-efficient EV technology is one of the most important breakthroughs required for the sustainable development of the country and to reduce carbon footprint. IIT Guwahati is earnestly working in this direction.This development will augment this process and maximise the outcomes”.
