Abstract
⺠The use of PV cells as auxiliary power generators in vehicles is investigated. ⺠The suitability of PV technologies for vehicular applications is assessed. ⺠PV systems will provide energy continuously, even when the vehicle is parked. ⺠The annual fuel consumption of the vehicles will be reduced. ⺠The payback period of the initial investment would be approximately 4 years.
