Abstract

With the ever-growing concerns on the impact of climate change, the world has stepped up efforts to reduce carbon emission by implementing policies in several key areas. One of the main strategies is to phase out the internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) that have contributed significantly to greenhouse gases and replace them with electric and hybrid vehicles (EVs and HEVs) that run on cleaner energy alternatives. This chapter focuses on three different electrochemical energy sources employed in EVs and HEVs: batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells. We will discuss the capabilities and development of the state-of-art electrochemical energy sources, outlining their key challenges and providing the outlook toward realizing a safer, greener, and efficient urban transportation system.
