Topics covered the expected gamut of policy (especially carbon policy), infrastructure, batteries and consumers. Infrastructure, recharging and business models. The impact from plug-in electric vehicles on the grid could be very substantial. One the issues for PG&E is the impact of peak demand on the grid.

If someone only spends $100 with me yearly to charge their vehicle at one of my high-speed chargers, I’m still probably going to see in the neighborhood of an additional $400 or $500 in home charging. And in fact, we’ve had good conversations with bp pulse and with Shell Recharge in our service territory. Factor at a rate of 0.33

The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance. At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. Appendix C: Intricacies of the Grid—transfer of power vs. energy. slow charge.

And yet, what about recharging? That means I'd have to recharge at least once. It might be in your neighborhood, but it's something that you will find along interstates or major travel routes. And that will get you to your destination with something like 25 or 30 percent of battery range remaining.

They use rechargeable batteries to ride at speeds of up to 45 kilometers per hour, much faster than most people would cycle, taking you to your destination faster and in better condition. The motor is powered by a battery that is recharged through the electrical grid, though a solar panel can be used as well.

Plug-in hybrids differ from hybrids on the road today in that they can go longer distances on battery power and can be recharged via electrical outlets. Myers’s NmG—or no more gas—is a three-wheel, one-seat vehicle that can travel up to 75 mph and as far as 50 miles in its lithium-battery model. Bright Automotive.

They can’t go much above 800 to 1,000 volts in battery technology with their electronics only at 1,200 volts. Number one, they can get a full day’s work out of a 48-volt battery pack, so they don’t need to go higher. They could do three, four runs a day without a problem, without having to recharge.

The three leading new options to re-supply our autos with energy are charging at home, battery swap stations and fast charge stations. Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities.
