This paper presents the control of solar photovoltaic (PV)-battery fed synchronous reluctance motor for light electric vehicle (LEV) application for a complete driving cycle. The Driving cycle chosen here is the Indian Driving Cycle (IDC). The motor is powered by the battery and the solar PV panel installed on the rooftop which is used to charge the battery. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) based on incremental conductance (InC) approach is used to retrieve maximum power from PV array. The three phase voltage source inverter (VSI) is being used to supply power from the battery/PV array to the synchronous reluctance motor (RelSyn). Energy regeneration is by stored kinetic energy of the system while decelerating and by solar PV array. The drive is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink and the dynamics of the vehicle and performance of the motor drive are demonstrated in detail.
