“…The main feature of the rural area and the greatest obstacle to the introduction of electrical tractors in farms is a very high demand of torque on engines used in agricultural machinery (MOUSAZADEH et al, 2010).…”

“…According to MOUSAZADEH et al (2010), in addition to the energy issue, it should be pointed out that the agricultural tractors equipped with ICEs are responsible for a great share of the air pollution.…”

“…The use of a multi-use battery, supplied by a source coupled to the electric vehicle, known as photovoltaic panels (PV), was proposed by MOUSAZADEH et al (2010). This system also included stationary devices for energy storage.…”

“…According to MOUSAZADEH et al (2010), a PV "on board" in a tractor is capable of releasing around 4kWh per day, while the transient power of an electric tractor with two engines series DC (direct current) of 10.5kW synchronized, one on each rear wheel is 60kW for a few seconds, and the power rating is less than 21kW. Therefore, it is important to think of an electric hybrid tractor, with battery and PV, in which the battery stores the excess energy generated by the panel during the day and uses it during the night or in days with little levels of solar radiation.…”

“…Such fact, in Magalhães et al a great extent is due to the energy density of diesel being about 100-300 times higher than the density of energy from the batteries (MOUSAZADEH et al, 2010). In addition, the low durability of electrical batteries and the long time to recharge reduce the likelihood of electric tractors having significance in the market (MOUSAZADEH et al, 2010).…”

This paper presents the main applications of electric vehicles in rural areas, pointing out the trends and challenges for the future. Technological conditions and difficulties faced by the industry for a wide dissemination of this technology are discussed. The paper described the main researches with proposals to overcome the problems of implementing electric tractors, as supply and electricity storage. Technical and economic comparisons between conventional internal combustion tractors and electric tractors are also presented and discussed. The paper showed the existence of barriers to the implementation of electric vehicles in rural areas, as well as the need for batteries technological evolution, which have high costs and for that reason they are very heavy for these purposes, but there are already systems that can be applied to minimize dependence of fossil fuels in this sector and increase the use of sustainable energy.
