create a fc engine that will give vehicles a range of conventional cars,
while attaining environmental benefits comparable to those of batterypowered evs. the power conditioner
must have minimal losses leading to
higher efficiency. power conditioning
efficiencies can typically be higher
than 90%.

Statistical analysis
and Trends of Fc EVs in India

The technology of
FCs is extremely
advanced in the
European and
American market,
which has
subsequently
spurred a growth
in their sales.

the technology of fcs is extremely
advanced in the european and american market, which has subsequently
spurred a growth in their sales. in
comparison, the sales of fcs have
been sluggish in the indian market. the early 2010s saw
the development of prototype fc systems for transportation applications, and in the latter part of 2015, the

country started producing fcs for portable and transportation applications.
the production and sales of fc-based
evs is expected to reach a peak of
approximately 300,000 vehicles by
2020; the estimated world market,
especially for buses and cars, is shown
in figure 9.
india does not have sufficient
knowledge of the technology of fc evs
compared to western countries. it will
take some time to reduce the cost per
kilowatt for fc-based evs. in early 2004,
the cost was 9,000/kw for a fc system,
which has since decreased because of
advances and the availability of material to make the fc system and the availability of skilled labor for production. india's target plan, as
shown in figure 10, is to reduce the cost for a fc system
(peMfc) to 1,800/kw by 2020 and to 1,000/kw by 2030.
