Discusses two projects. The Electric Vehicle Project at the Flinders University of South Australia concerned with the conversion to electric power of a Bedford CF350 1-tonne delivery van. Research and development covers a wide scope: from control, motor, and transmission, through to battery and energy storage methods. The drive-line for the van is based on the Modulinear technology and the motor assembly uses a printed-circuit DC motor. Work at the University of New South Wales has resulted in the conversion of two 1-tonne Bedford CFL vans to an AC induction motor drive (IMP) system. Control over the squirrel-cage induction motor is achieved through the use of a programmed microprocessor system. The IMP system was initally developed at the Tasmanian College of Advanced Education.
