The two agencies expect to issue a proposal by 30 September 2011. The companies generally stated, however, that the degree to which these advanced technologies will penetrate the US market in the MYs 2017-2025 timeframe is dependent upon a number of challenges and factors, including future gasoline fuel prices, future decreases in battery.

. … Given the current barriers to increasing ethanol-based biofuels (blend wall, slow growth in cellulosic biofuel production, regulatory uncertainty surrounding the RFS), transportation electrification seemingly offers a more immediate opportunity to displace gasoline. Still, it is technically achievable. —Meier et al.

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

JULY 17, 2015

Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. Since it can refuel from a standard household outlet and from a gasoline station, it needs no new infrastructure. It is much more than that. Engineering Advantages of the PHEV.
