Abstract

In the automobile industry, nanocomposite technologies reduce weight and emissions, increasing vehicle energy efficiency. The multipurpose structure of the electric vehicle, known as the structural supercapacitor, is 35% lighter than steel and can produce electricity by trapping solar heat. This work developed an electric double-layer structural supercapacitor (EDLC) using aqueous sodium sulphate (Na2SO4) as the electrolyte, carbon fibre reinforcement conductive polymer (CFRP) and activated carbon zinc oxide (AC ZnO) as the n-type and copper oxide (CuO) as the p-type. Different weight percentages (wt.%) of AC ZnO/CuO capacitors have been constructed and tested at 32°C solar temperatures. Compared to other wt% AC EDLC, the CFRP-EDLC with 6 wt% of AC has the maximum performance, with a capacity of 18.56μF/cm2. In comparison to other formulations, the 70 wt% of epoxy, 6 wt.% weight AC and 30 wt% ZnO/CuO EDLC demonstrated superior charging in a shorter amount of time and discharging in a longer amount of time. If the solar trapping heat rises beyond 32°, an AI power management system (AIPMS) has been built into the EDLC EV body panel to prevent any mishaps. Depending on the current EDLC signal, AIPMS indicates EDLC operation.
