The interest, the expectation and a positive attitude towards learning, are competences that the teacher must promote to the students in the academic world. Teaching and learning methodologies are part of what is known today as academic innovation. Project-based learning (PBL) is a well-known technique due to its own characteristics, the most prominent being the need to work as a team. In this sense, different projects have been proposed to the students of the eighth cycle of the Electrical Engineering career applying the ABP methodology. One of the works carried out has the objective of improving the photovoltaic charging system and battery charge equalization of an electric vehicle (EV) to increase energy autonomy, through the development of an embedded system with sensors, actuators and microcontrollers for teachers of University. The results obtained by the students are presented in this document and express that the solar panel together with an initial charge of the EV allows an autonomy of 15 km per day, as long as the EV remains parked and recharging during the teacher's working day. The implementation of this learning technique allowed students to engage in everyday problems that occur in the work or even personal environment, obtaining excellent results in the application of cross-curricular content in subjects such as the environment, renewable energy, microcontrollers, robotics, power, digital and analog circuits.
