Electric and Autonomous Vehicles in Transportation CASE STUDY

This case study explores the integration of electric and autonomous vehicles in transportation using the fictional city of Greenville as an example. Greenville adopted electric vehicles, integrated autonomous shuttles, and saw reduced emissions and costs as a result. However, it also faced infrastructure challenges. The case study discusses opportunities like environmental and economic benefits, as well as challenges such as high costs and regulatory uncertainty. It reviews literature on the environmental, economic, and societal impacts of electric and autonomous vehicles and envisions their potential to make transportation more sustainable, efficient, and safe.

INTRODUCTION

•Autonomous electric vehicles (A-VE) are self-driving


vehicles powered by electricity rather than gasoline.
These vehicles use sensors and computer vision to
navigate. A-EVs are capable of driving where traditional
cars and human drivers do.

Tesla, an electric car company founded by Elon Musk


CASE STUDY
This case study explores the integration and impact of
electric and autonomous vehicles in the transportation
sector, focusing on a fictional city named "Greenville" and
its efforts to embrace sustainable and autonomous mobility
solutions.
•Adopted electric vehicles.
•Integrated autonomous shuttles.
•Reduced emissions and costs.
•Faced infrastructure challenges.
•Achieved environmental and economic
benefits.
OPPORTUNITIES
• Eco-Benefits: EVs emit no pollution, less air and
greenhouse gas emissions. Self-driving cars can
cut traffic, fuel consumption and emissions.
• Autonomous vehicles can reduce accidents
caused by human error, making driving safer for
everyone.
• Electric and self-driving cars can be more
efficient than traditional ones, cutting
transportation costs and increasing productivity.
CHALLENGES
• Challenges for EV and self-driving cars include
insufficient charging stations and specialized
infrastructure needs.
• Electric and autonomous vehicles are pricier, hindering
accessibility for consumers.
• Electric and autonomous vehicle regulations vary by
region, creating uncertainty for manufacturers and
consumers.
