ABOUT FDP
The electric vehicle industry is a growing industry in India. The central and state governments have launched
schemes and incentives to promote electric mobility in the country and some regulations and standards are also
in place. Electric vehicles are the future of transportation. Electric mobility has become an essential part of the
energy transition and will imply significant changes for vehicle manufacturers, governments, companies, and
individuals. There are challenges like lack of charging infrastructure, high initial cost, and lack of electricity
produced from renewable energy. Still, e-commerce companies, car manufacturers, app-based transportation
network companies, and mobility solution providers have entered the sector and are slowly building up electric
car capacity and visibility. Also, Electric Vehicles (EV) are one of the growing popular options for people who
are conscious about environmental pollution, global warming, and health issues. The global share of Electric
vehicles will increase from 2% in 2020 to 22% in 2030.
The ability to deliver the technical information of this major area to the right audience at the right time is a
valuable skill. This Faculty Development Program (FDP) is designed to enrich and augment the knowledge of
the participants and provide a basic platform to carry out research in these fields which will further bolster the
development of the country.
Objective:
Electric Vehicles have completely different systems & architecture compared to the petrol or diesel vehicles. EV
is a very complicated system than ICVs.The key objective of this faculty development program is the
dissemination of the technical skills and knowledge in the concerned field among academicians and researchers
and thereby reforming our nation to adapt itself to the new era of vehicular transportation by its own developed
skills. This training program intends to impart a broad theoretical, practical, and design background in the area of
Electrical Vehicles. It investigates the vivid opportunities available in EV sector, that one needs to have a deeper
understanding of the system- its opportunities, challenges and benefits, industrial perspectives, issues and trends
in EV Protection schemes, Electric Vehicle Charging infrastructures and Magnetics Design etc.

About VESIT RENAISSANCE CELL
VESIT RENAISSANCE CELL also known as VRC was established in the year 2015-16. VRC is the brainchild of our
Principal Dr. J.M. Nair. She came up with the idea of having "young leaders" as an intermediate layer of workforce.
She picked up few members from all departments. We are a team of eleven members. To fulfill objectives of VRC
different activities were started. Project-based learning and skill development activities give real growth to our goals.
