BIBLIOMETRIC INDICATORS AND TECHNOLOGICAL MAPPING OF THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Abstract

Electric vehicles (EVs) are a strategic solution to environmental challenges, combining energy efficiency and reduced emissions. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis and technological mapping of the sector, comparing Brazil's position with leaders such as China, the United States, and Germany. The objective is to identify trends in national development. The methodology includes data from bibliographic and patent databases, analyzing scientific publications and technological records. The results show that China leads in batteries and infrastructure, while Brazil demonstrates low scientific production and reliance on foreign technology. Despite its renewable energy matrix and programs such as Rota 2030, integrated policies for innovation are lacking. It is concluded that Brazil needs to strengthen its scientific research, integrate academia with the productive sector, and invest in infrastructure to compete in the global electric vehicle market.
