Electric Vehicle (EV) is very likely to be an alternative in sustainable energy management. EV itself is a vehicle that uses 100% electricity using an electric battery that needs to be recharged
Advantages
Electric cars are called environmentally friendly cars because they do not produce emissions that can affect the surrounding air pollution. This vehicle has a speed machine that is processed using electric power, so it will not produce residual Co2 and Co emissions. The next advantage is that because this car is driven by electricity, the engine sound produced is quieter or less noisy. This makes the driver more comfortable and focused when driving on the road.
This is one of the most different advantages of electric cars compared to fuel cars is refueling using electricity. Equipped with a large electric current storage power then with a single charge through charging it can be used over long distances. In addition, you don’t need to queue like a conventional car at a gas station, but only by charging the battery at home or in a public place that has been provided. All you have to do is connect a charging device to your electric car.
Electric cars are fairly easy and cost-effective because this type of car does not have an exhaust system. If a conventional car usually has to change the oil, radiator, and others, while electric car components are more practical. That way, the costs incurred are not much.
The main ingredient
Besides nickel, the main component needed to make electric car batteries is lithium, whose reserves are not yet available in sufficient quantities to be economically produced in Indonesia.
History
The history of electric cars dates back to the 18th century when many scientists from Hungary, the Netherlands, and the United States focused on the concept of battery-powered vehicles and started making electric cars on a small scale.
