“…Technically, EVs and FCs are commercially available, but the high price of ownership makes it difficulty to be applicable in countries with low income per capita [16]. Despite the good intentions of the governments, providing infrastructure for these technologies to operate in large cities, it is still difficult due to its requirement of a broader area to interconnect the charging system [17], [18]. Limited stock, land-use competition, as well as underdeveloped technology, liquid biofuels, fuel cells, and hydrogen, are currently only able to replace fossil fuels to a very limited level when compared with Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) [19]- [22].…”

Article InfoThis article presents an overview of the technology status and market trends of LPG-fueled vehicles through the literature approach to re-evaluate their future. In the review, it is discovered that LPG vehicles are globally increasing, though with a concentration in some countries. Of the 25 countries included in the World LPG Association (WLPGA) annual report 2018, Turkey, Poland, India, Ukraine, and Mexico are the countries with the best LPG vehicle trends in average of 23%. with a long history of implementing LPG as an alternative fuel has experienced a decline in the 2013-2017 period by 17%. This was allegedly due to the penetration of diesel-fueled vehicles over the last ten years. Moreover, developed countries experiencing decline have succeeded in developing electric-based vehicles such as Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) due to stringent demands for emission standards. AbstrakArtikel ini menyajikan ulasan tentang status teknologi dan tren pasar kendaraan berbahan bakar LPG melalui pendekatan literatur untuk mengevaluasi kembali masa depan mereka. Dalam ulasan ini, ditemukan bahwa kendaraan LPG meningkat secara global, meskipun terkonsentrasi di beberapa negara. Dari 25 negara yang termasuk dalam laporan tahunan World LPG Association (WLPGA) tahun 2018, Turki, Polandia, India, Ukraina, dan Meksiko adalah negara-negara dengan tren kendaraan LPG terbaik dengan rata-rata 23%. Sementara itu, Australia, Jepang, Korea Selatan, Inggris, Belanda, Prancis, dan Jerman yang memiliki sejarah panjang menerapkan LPG sebagai bahan bakar alternatif telah mengalami penurunan 17% selama periode 2013-2017. Ini diduga karena penetrasi kendaraan berbahan bakar diesel selama sepuluh tahun terakhir. Selain itu, negara maju yang mengalami penurunan telah berhasil mengembangkan kendaraan berbasis listrik seperti Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), dan Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) karena tuntutan ketat pada standar emisi.

“…Furthermore, as EVs need power to charge at any time of the day, it is essential to use available biogas resources for EV charging to increase the effective hour and management of wastes correctly [26]. The design of EVCS using solar and biogas resources can make the system cost-effective and reduces environment pollution significantly [27]. A study in the context of Denmark shows that biogas used for EV charging reduces fuel consumption and GHG emission [28,29].…”

The growing popularity of electric vehicles (EV) is creating an increasing burden on the power grid in Bangladesh due to massive energy consumption. Due to this uptake of variable energy consumption, environmental concerns, and scarcity of energy lead to investigate alternative energy resources that are readily available and environment friendly. Bangladesh has enormous potential in the field of renewable resources, such as biogas and biomass. Therefore, this paper proposes a design of a 20 kW electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) using biogas resources. A comprehensive viability analysis is also presented for the proposed EVCS from technological, economic, and environmental viewpoints using the HOMER (Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Resources) model. The viability result shows that with the capacity of 15–20 EVs per day, the proposed EVCS will save monthly $16.31 and $29.46, respectively, for easy bike and auto-rickshaw type electric vehicles in Bangladesh compare to grid electricity charging. Furthermore, the proposed charging station can reduce 65.61% of CO2 emissions than a grid-based charging station.

“…Bangladesh has installed 13,555 MW to meet the demand of electricity where the per capita energy consumption is only 308 kWh [8][9][10]. Moreover, this electricity is generated using national resources like natural gas and coal where around 1890 MW of the power could not be generated from the public power plants due to a shortage of gas as fuel and others [11][12][13]. On the other hand, fuel burning in energy generation is responsible for global warming and environmental pollution.…”

The incorporation of renewable energy and the transportation system can be significantly beneficial for the economy and environment of Bangladesh. The main energy source for vehicles in Bangladesh are the country’s natural gas and fuel. However, due to the rapid depletion of the gas reserve, soaring gas prices and global warming, alongside the environmental pollution caused by burning fuel, this raises concerns about these energy sources. Renewable energy offers a plausible solution to these problems. This paper’s objective is to focus on the maximum usages of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system in electrical vehicles and to minimize the environmental impact in terms of CO2 emission. This system may be partially used to power up the electric vehicle with a charging facility and contribute excess power to the national grid. The modeling, with its optimal analysis of the green transportation system, is simulated using the Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Renewables (HOMER) software. The energy produced by the PV system can provide up to 13,792 kWh/year. Approximately 21% of the total production can be used in the charging station for charging the electrical vehicles and the rest of the energy can contribute to the national grid. Moreover, using the proposed concept of green transport will ultimately reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 52,944 kg/year.
