Georgia Tech study suggests unlinking EVs from CAFE and coordinating with power sector for low-cost benefits

Green Car Congress

A negative value means the case has a lower TCE than the reference case. For the study, they define EVs as including both battery-electric (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric (PHEV) vehicles. The controlled charging of EVs can reduce electricity costs and improve the integration of wind energy. Click to enlarge.

A Skepticā€™s Take on Beaming Power to Earth from Space

Cars That Think

Energy experts have been warning that electricity is likely to get more expensive and less reliable unless renewable power that waxes and wanes under inconstant sunlight and wind is backed up by generators that can run whenever needed. These rectennas would then convert the signal to usable DC electricity.

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

Green Car Congress

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.

Report from the REFF-Wall Street; Themes in Renewable Energy Finance

Green Car Congress

Within the US electric power sector the biggest question was whether the Production Tax Credits (PTC) were going to be extended beyond 2008. It is not how can we get low cost capital to take more risk. It is how do we lower the risk so low cost capital can participate. What is the PTC and why does it matter?
