Addressing this need, the present study proposes a novel control strategy for an induction motor drive system in EVs, primarily powered by solar PhotoVoltaic (PV) panels. The system employs Field-Oriented Control (FOC) technology to ensure precise motor control, enhanced performance, and reduced energy losses. To enable real-time monitoring and control, an Internet of Things (IoT) based system is integrated, providing valuable insights into the motor drive’s operation and energy consumption. The incorporation of solar PV energy offers a sustainable, long-term alternative to conventional grid-powered sources. The FOC technique further ensures efficient and reliable motor drive operation under varying load conditions. Overall, the synergy of solar energy, advanced motor control, and IoT monitoring presents a highly efficient and eco-friendly solution for future EV applications.enField-oriented controlelectric vehicleinternet of thingsphotovoltaic and induction motorPHOTOVOLTAIC-FED MOTOR DRIVE SYSTEM FOR NEXT-GENERATION ELECTRIC VEHICLESArticle
