For the study, they developed well-to-wheel models to investigate energy use and GHG emissions of a PHEV, HEV (hybrid electric vehicle), and conventional internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV). C1 is shorter than C2, which is shorter than C3). For the hydroelectric scenario, fossil energy use is 81% lower for C1 than for HWY2.
