Chandwadkar, D. M Abstract: Our future depends upon the renewable energy sources. Since many years vehicles have relied on combustion fuel like oil and diesel, which will create problem in near future as there are limited reserves of fossil fuels. Hence the most important fact is to preserve energy. So, plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) is good and effective solution for eco-friendly transportation system. Therefore, in this paper a plug-in hybrid vehicle approach is presented along with portable solar panel mounted on it to charge battery. As solar panel is less efficient, a new technique called external light trapping is presented. A 3D printed parabolic concentrator is used for this purpose. It redirects reflected photons back to solar cells and hence due to multiple reflections its power conversion efficiency increases. If in any case, battery run out of charge then to charge it mobile chargers (MC) are used. An android application is developed to support PHEV mobility. It provides full support to driver through its various functions like monitoring of battery, prediction of range it can travel with current battery state and its location. The mobile server based on queuing approach determines design parameter for such mobile charging system. An NJN (nearest-job-next) strategy is used to serve this purpose. In NJN, MC serves next closest PHEV when its current job is done. Moreover, driver can reserve charging slot based on their availability. So, in short our main purpose is to reduce carbon dioxide emission and mitigate PHEV driver range anxiety problem.
