Abstract: As electric vehicles (EV) become more commonplace in the US, innovation is only making their batteries smaller and more efficient. Charging stations are becoming more ubiquitous making EV’s a more viable option. EV’s reduce carbon emissions and, with an increasing number of nuclear power plants, reduce the dependency on chemical energy. The objective of this capstone project is to: build a functioning electric motorcycle, and optimize the range by utilizing high energy density battery pack. This pack will be comprised of Lithium-Ion cells.
