ASSESSMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES: A REVIEW
The emergence of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) has paved a way for the automobile industry to tap into the vast potential of renewable sources of energy and to look for eco friendly alternatives to fossil fuels. Not only can the depletion of non renewable resources be countered effectively but the...
