Electric vehicles are classified into different types such as battery electric vehicles (BEV), hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV). The need for an energy storage system is one of the pressing issues related to the current EV technology. Some of the major types of batteries which are used within electric vehicles are lithium-ion batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries and lead-acid batteries. This book contains some path-breaking studies related to battery management for electric vehicles. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. As the research on electric vehicles is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of this area of study.
