On the other hand, drivers of other vehicles waste considerable time making special trips to refuel their internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles at the liquid fuel station or their battery electric vehicle (BEV) at the rapid recharging station. Slow Level 1 charging [ 11 ] should be used to recharge PHEVLER batteries whenever possible.

To achieve the best outcomes, the brief suggests, plug-in vehicle adoption should typically be focused on HEVs and PHEVs by city drivers in mild-climate regions with a clean electricity grid, such as San Francisco or Los Angeles. Further, drivers should not be encouraged to charge at night in coal-heavy regions.

Electric vehicles are powered by electricity stored in rechargeable batteries or obtained from other sources such as hydrogen fuel cells. There are three main types of electric vehicles: #1 Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs): These vehicles are powered solely by electric motors and rely on rechargeable batteries for energy storage.

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. At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. Appendix C: Intricacies of the Grid—transfer of power vs. energy.

Many people associate power with the deep sound of revving engines and mistake EVs’ silence to mean they are lacking in speed and performance. EVs accelerate faster than gas-powered cars and have more than enough speed for every-day usage. Are EVs as fast as fuel cars? In fact, the opposite is true. Is EV charging fast enough?

Vehicle to Grid (V2G) technology is a bi-directional electric grid interface that allows a plug-in to take energy from the grid or put it back on the grid. Several early models of passenger vehicles have enough energy stored in advanced batteries to power several homes for hours.

The electric grid is the most advanced energy-distribution network ever created and is constantly only a few feet away from us (far more ubiquitous than gas/ethanol/hydrogen stations). The first step was the hybrid, which proved to the world that electric power can reduce gas consumption.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. Most charge points available today take much longer to re-energize batteries than it does to fill a gas-powered cars tank.
