Driven by the climate change commitments made by the Indian Government during the COP21 Summit, Paris to reduce emission intensity by 33-35 per cent by 2030 from the 2005 levels, electric mobility continues to be high on the agenda for governments globally. The government’s the world over are relying on the technological prowess of automotive component manufacturers and their tier suppliers to achieve the ambitious goal of zero emissions by 2030. The industry together with the government is working towards reorienting businesses to meet modern-day needs and to do its bit to reverse climate change through such innovative and advanced next generation solutions. BorgWarner has taken it upon itself to improve upon the erstwhile generation of inverters used for electric vehicles. In electric vehicles, an inverter is a device that converts Direct Current (DC) power to the Alternating Current (AC) power known to be used in an electric vehicle motor. It has the capability to change the speed at which the motor rotates as it adjusts the frequency of AC.
