The energy storage market is currently limited by a number of factors, Pike notes, including: Inflexible electricity market structures; Displaced cost and benefits (i.e., Technology costs. The cost figures that Pike Research bases its forecast on have also changed. Balancing Li-ion capacity with market opportunities.

Electrofuels approaches will use organisms able to extract energy from other sources, such as solar-derived electricity or hydrogen or earth-abundant metal ions. The team anticipates at least a twofold productivity improvement over current levels and a cost that can be competitive with gasoline. Electrofuels. per gallon.

If you want one now, know that youll spend far more than theyll cost when mass-produced. Though costs are now high, we believe automakers could sell PHEVs for only $2,000-$5,000 more than current hybrids. We will have similar solutions available for better (but more expensive) nickel-metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries.)

The costs and benefits of cars extend far beyond an individual driver to society as a whole. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) estimates that the current power grid could handle many tens of millions of cars plugging in at off-peak hours before wed have any capacity issues [See EPRI article PDF ].
