About Paper:

"Range anxiety," or the dread of running out of power, continues to be a persistent worry for prospective EV owners and continues to be one of the leading barriers to EV adoption. Electric cars (EVs) are increasing in popularity, which has led to important developments in battery technology and longer driving distances. Range anxiety can lead people to be misinformed about EVs leading to lack of adoption of electric vehicles. Enhancing the usability and effectiveness of the infrastructure for charging will assist in increasing adoption of EVs. There are several existing solutions aimed to alleviate range anxiety, including, the integration of cutting- edge telematics and navigation systems, which enables drivers to efficiently plan their routes by taking into account real-time data on the availability of charging stations, charging prices, and distances. These technologies offer precise information about charging stations and ways to reduce range anxiety. The aim of this research is to identify and analyze existing solutions to addressing range anxiety and identifying the most promising methods to proliferate into the public.
