Sustainable approach of Solar Photovoltaic system for Generation of Hydrogen Used as the Fuel of Automobiles IC Engine for Jaipur, India

Abstract:

At present, with inside the case of India, weather alternate is an issue of great concern. Energy is a component that determines the country's structure. A worldwide trouble is the imbalance among the usage of electricity and the generation of electricity. All countries presently depend upon fossil fuels for electricity production, and those fossil fuels aren't sustainable sources. Not simplest is greenhouse gas emissions however additionally the worst gasoline economy. Within this subject matter and out of mind, there are some of tactics which have emerged with inside the car industry to deal with this trouble together with Battery Electric Vehicles or extra with inside the industrial scale, Electric Cell Vehicles and Hybrid Electric Vehicles. A fuel cell is an equipment that operates using chemical reactions. Fuel cells use reactants, that are innocent to the surroundings and bring water as a manufactured from chemical reactions. Since hydrogen is a clean fuel which can be used in the internal combustion (IC) engine at the place of diesel fuels in transportation sector (Automobiles).Presently it’s the hydrogen is commercially produced by commercial electricity which sotly so the production cost of H2 is high. But it can be produced by solar PV and other low cost centricity production options by which the production cost of H2 can be reduced. The H2 fuel is clean and green and it can help to reduce the environmental pollution and enhance the sustainability.
