Abstract

In urban traffic, due to their beneficial effect on environment, electrically propelled vehicles are an important factor for improvement of traffic and more particularly for a healthier living environment. The operation of the electrically propelled vehicle is dependent on the availability of efficient electric energy storage devices: the traction batteries, which have to access suitable recharging infrastructures. For all these components, standards are essential for ensuring safety and compatibility. This article gives an overview of current developments in the field of international standardization of electrically propelled vehicles, focusing on two essential matters for electric vehicles: batteries and charging.
