SELF CHARGING ELECTRIC BICYCLE USING SOLAR ENERGY

Abstract: Nowadays and in future rising interest in sustainable and eco-friendly transportation has sparked the creation of self-charging electric bicycles that harness renewable energy. This project is all about designing and building a self- charging electric bike that features solar panels to recharge its battery while it's in use or parked, and even generates power through pedal rotation while riding. The system makes use of photovoltaic cells to turn sunlight into electrical energy, which is stored in a lithium-ion battery to drive the electric motor. This won't have to depends on external charging stations, allowing for a longer travel range and better energy efficiency. Our main goals include finding the best spots for solar panel placement to maximize energy capture, enhancing battery management, and ensuring the bicycle is both cost-effective and portable. The design aims to encourage green mobility by cutting down on fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions, providing a sustainable option for urban transportation. It's an innovative and eco- friendly approach to getting around that reduces the need for outside charging sources. The growing demand for sustainable transport has spurred the development of energy-efficient and eco-friendly mobility solutions.

Keywords: The design reduces dependence on external charging sources and promotes eco-friendly transportation. It aims to improve energy efficiency, reduce pollution, and support sustainable urban mobility.
