The issues of global warming and depletion of fossil fuels have created opportunities for electric vehicles(EV).Electric vehicles(EV) may reduce global green house gas emission(GHG)as the energy consumption in the world’s transportation is high. This paper represents the working and construction arrangement of an electrically operated tandem cycle with regenerative braking arrangement. In regenerative braking, kinetic energy of the vehicle is stored in an energy storing device instead of being dissipated and the stored energy is used to drive the vehicle later on. This type of electric cycle results in reduced human muscle effort. Moreover the electric tandem cycle is environment friendly and does not emit toxic gases in the atmosphere. The electric tandem cycle does not produce sound pollution by creating noise. The electrically operated tandem cycle with solar charging system represents the utilization of renewable energy. The electrically driven tandem cycle is operated by a Permanent Magnet DC Motor (PMDC). The motor is powered by a battery pack of 24 V 10 Ah and it can be charged by a 24V 4 Ah Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS) or a solar panel of 24 V. This environment friendly electrically driven tandem cycle reduces muscle power of a rider and it can be available at low cost. After completion of this experiment it has been recorded that the electrically driven tandem cycle can run more times after installing regenerative braking arrangement
