However, Na-ion batteries have exhibited weak charge-discharge behavior except at high temperature—indicative of sluggish kinetics in standard carbon anodes. V, the operation voltage of the NiMH battery used in most hybrids now, the authors noted.). Earlier post.). The cell shows an operation voltage of ~1.8 —Xiong et al.

The main study shows that under all nine scenarios for both rates of market penetration of PHEVs and the evolving power grids characteristics (capacity/carbon intensity), PHEVs will vastly reduce greenhouse gases for the next 40 years. But theyve needed definitive proof that PHEVs wont increase pollution. See CalCars-News Archive for updates.
