Abstract: The rapid adoption of electric autonomous vehicles (EAVs) introduces a critical challenge: optimizing energy consumption to maximize vehicle efficiency and sustainability. This paper addresses the pressing issue of energy consumption in EAVs by proposing an advanced smart routing approach. Our primary motivation is to enhance the operational efficiency of EAVs, thereby contributing to sustainable transportation solutions. The proposed method utilizes sophisticated energy models and routing algorithms to intelligently determine energy-efficient paths for autonomous driving systems. By integrating advanced computational techniques, this approach dynamically adapts to varying traffic conditions and vehicle states, significantly enhancing energy efficiency. Through rigorous simulation and realtime testing, the study demonstrates substantial energy savings and route optimization. Results indicate a marked reduction in energy consumption, with potential improvements of over 20% in route efficiency. These findings underscore the effectiveness of the smart routing approach in promoting energy conservation and reducing operational costs in EAVs. The implementation of these strategies could potentially revolutionize the energy landscape of transportation by reducing the carbon footprint and enhancing vehicle autonomy. This work not only provides a foundation for future research in sustainable vehicular technologies but also underscores the pivotal role of innovative routing solutions in the progression of eco-friendly transportation infrastructures.
