The present work highlights a case-study that aims to determine the performance (power input/output) and battery temperature on in-house developed e-rickshaw battery pack. With the rise of e-rickshaws in Indian market, the demand for the batteries have also increased and being the largest state-run energy company of India, R&D Centre of Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) has developed a chemically modified nanomaterial-based lead acid battery. The lab scale experiments, which are not presented in the study due to confidentiality and intellectual property obligations, indicated that the nanomaterial doped lead acid battery pack performs better than the control (reference) and leading commercial batteries in terms of lifecycle, capacity etc. Subsequently, this paper highlights the performance with IOC R&D Centre manufactured 12V/100AH chemically modified (nanomaterial) lead acid battery pack for e-rickshaw on duty cycle developed indigenously based on the city driving experiences. The candidate battery pack of e-rickshaw were duly subjected for evaluation in comparison with control batteries (conventional lead acid configuration) along with leading commercial batteries. The performance tests for the e-rickshaw were conducted on chassis dynamometer which followed in-house charge-discharge cycles and measurement of power input & output with a sophisticated measurement device i.e., power analyzer. The nanomaterial impeded electroplates were made to enhance capacity and durability of lead acid battery and thereon the performance evaluation of e-rickshaws powered by nanomaterial-based control & commercial batteries were conducted in terms of Watt-hour (WH), Ampere-hour (AH), distance travelled per discharge cycle, durability & life cycle measurement by charging and discharging of batteries. Further, discharge (energy dissipation) of batteries were done by in-house developed driving cycle on chassis dynamometer. The cumulative distance covered under the driving cycle by nanomaterial powered e-rickshaw has shown significant improvement than the control and commercial batteries. Furthermore, it is concluded that in terms of durability, nanomaterial-based battery pack is better compared to control and commercial batteries for the SoC and battery temperature which are key performance parameters.
