Centre for E-Vehicle Technology
Driving the future of sustainable transportation through advanced electric mobility
Overview
The Centre for E-Vehicle Technology at Dhaanish Chennai College of Engineering is a specialized hub dedicated to the research and development of Electric Vehicles (EVs). As the global automotive industry shifts toward sustainable energy, our center prepares students to lead this transition through rigorous training in battery technology, electric drivetrains, and charging infrastructure.
The center serves as a testing ground for EV prototypes and a training facility for advanced power electronics. We collaborate with industry leaders to ensure our students have access to the latest trends and technologies in the rapidly evolving world of electric mobility.
Strategic Training Areas
Battery Management Systems
Study of Li-ion cell chemistry, thermal management, and BMS algorithmic control for safety and efficiency.
Electric Drivetrains
Design and optimization of BLDC and PMDC motors, power inverters, and regenerative braking systems.
Charging Infrastructure
Development of AC/DC fast-charging protocols, solar-integrated charging, and smart grid connectivity.
Key Lab Facilities
- Custom-built EV chassis for prototyping and weight analysis.
- Solar-powered EV charging station simulator.
- Motor characterization and torque testing benches.
- BMS testing kits with real-time temperature monitoring.
