The scope of this study is to design a photovoltaic battery charging system to propel a PHEV for 32 km per day on pure electric mode and achieve the goal of reducing daily fuel consumption by 50%.
Eventually, the battery goes dead. When you connect a single solar panel to a lead-acid battery, the battery acts like the lights in the car and will use all the energy in the panel until there is no more. It is important to note that you are still dealing with electricity, and safety should always be the first step in any solar panel project.
