In today’s life Electrical energy becomes one of the basic needs. Electricity plays vital role in every human being’s day to day life. Energy is the prime mover of economic growth and is vital to the sustenance of a modern economy. In present world energy crises is a major problem and the resources are depleting at a higher rate. Thus there is a need of specific technology that recovers the energy, which gets wasted usually. IC engines and hybrid energy vehicles are also the major source of the fuel consumptions. Generally in electrical vehicle whenever the brakes are applied the vehicle comes to a halt and the kinetic energy gets wasted due to friction in the form of heat. In order to use this dispersed energy in case electrical vehicle regenerative braking system can be employed. Use of regenerative braking system in automobiles enables us to recover most of the kinetic energy that is lost during the braking process. In the present work investigation on basic design and components used in the regenerative braking for electric vehicles and model is designed / developed. The working mechanism was studied to understand how the Regenerative Braking System (RBS) could convert mechanical energy to electrical energy and also the implementation of the RBS with the help of MATLAB simulink. This simulation gives us a clear idea about the variation of various characteristics with time during the process of regenerative braking and also the exact amount of energy recovered. The present project work can be implemented in all types of hybrid vehicles, Electric locomotives and airplanes at the time of applying break to reduce the speed of the vehicle as well as to generate energy.
