USCAR helps to develop charging-readiness tools for plug-in & electric vehicles through US DRIVE

Green Car Congress

FEBRUARY 17, 2012

The goal of USCAR is to further strengthen the technology base of the domestic auto industry through cooperative research and development. The Grid Interaction Tech Team helped to identify and address roadblocks that would prevent successful commercialization of all types of plug-in electric vehicles.

JULY 17, 2015

The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. (In In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) It is much more than that.

Electric Cars and The Volt Can Transform America and the Auto Industry TODAY!!! If you charge up the Toyota Prius PHEV you would get 200 miles per gallon and 40 mile EV range; the same as the Volt. Here are some other important aspects to pure electric cars (or the purely electric part of a PHEV). What Could They Do?

A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) contains both an electric powertrain and an internal combustion engine. . If it’s manufactured on a ‘dirty’ power grid it becomes a major source of emissions over the EV lifecycle. The New Zealand Power Grid.
