Base case economics for EVs in North America are very challenging, absent significant disruption in oil price or battery cost. Electric vehicles (EVs) will become economically attractive for lead market segments by 2020, but broader adoption will require major declines in battery costs. Click to enlarge.

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. 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.

Airplanes, for example, won’t be able to fly long distances on battery power. In addition, for many uses, energy can’t be used the instant it’s generated but must be stored for hours or days and transferred across continents or even oceans, neither of which is currently economically or technologically feasible.

While hybrids have been recently criticized for not being as efficient or cost effective as they could be, plug-in hybrids (and more importantly pure EVs) can be much more competitive if all vehicles in the fleet each year were partially battery then hybrid versus dual fuel. Why Did It Have To Happen This Way? So, what is there to do?
