Abstract

Flexible solar cells have emerged as a promising technology for integrating renewable energy generation into electric vehicles (EVs), enabling improved energy efficiency and extended driving range. This review paper provides a comprehensive analysis of flexible solar cells for electric vehicles, focusing on their current status, challenges, and future prospects. The review covers various types of flexible solar cell technologies, including organic, dye-sensitized, perovskite, and thin-film technologies, and explores their advantages and limitations. Integration methods, efficiency improvements, and durability considerations for flexible solar cells in EV applications are discussed. The paper identifies key research directions and technological advancements required for the widespread adoption of flexible solar cells in the electric vehicle industry.
