Abstract
The global push toward zero-emission Electric Vehicles (EVs) has intensified, motivated by the need to reduce environmental impact and mitigate fossil fuel dependence. However, a significant challenge in regions such as Nigeria remains the insufficient and inconsistent electricity supply needed to recharge EV battery banks. This limitation not only restricts EV adoption but also raises concerns over the long-term sustainability of these systems. To extend the operational lifespan of EV battery banks and enhance overall energy efficiency, it is essential to minimize engine losses, which currently contribute to unnecessary power dissipation. This paper discusses the critical need for advanced, energy-efficient electric engine designs tailored to Nigeria’s unique energy constraints. By exploring innovative engine architectures and materials that reduce energy losses, this study aims to propose design solutions that align with the region’s infrastructural realities, facilitating a smoother transition to electric mobility in emerging markets and advancing global zero-emission goals.

Key words: EV; Electric Engine; PV; Optimize; Magnetic Engine.
