A Master thesis was discussed in Department of Electrical Engineering / College of Engineering at  University of Mosul entitled “Design and Analysis of Electrical Drive System for Brushless DC Motors in Lightweight Electric Vehicles”, submitted by (Mohammed Turki Baidar), Supervised By Prof. Dr. On Thursday, September, 25, 2025.
The thesis presented by, “Mohammed Turki Baidar” , aimed to “Statement of the importance of hybrid energy storage systems in lightweight electric vehicles and their role in distributing the power drawn between the battery and supercapacitor in a way that ensures isolation of large and sudden loads from the battery, which leads to achieving higher efficiency and longer lifespan, in addition to benefiting from regenerative braking to utilize the energy generated from it, thereby increasing the source efficiency”
The thesis discusses “Design and Analysis of Electric Drivetrain System by Integrating Brushless DC Motor (BLDC) Technology with Hysteresis Control and Hybrid Energy Storage System Architecture as an Effective Solution for Lightweight Electric Vehicles”

The results showed “The supercapacitor achieved about 0.8% state of charge in two seconds, while the battery achieved only 0.035% under the same conditions. Additionally, the supercapacitor was able to handle loads and variations with high efficiency and protected the battery from sudden electrical bursts”.

The current study is considered one of the sustainable studies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, especially the ninth goal “Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure” and the eleventh goal “Sustainable Cities and Communities” by highlighting the technology of lightweight, sustainable and environmentally friendly electric vehicles.
