This work is intended to enable market introduction of various electric vehicle technologies by lowering the cost of battery packs, batteries, and electric propulsion systems for EDVs through high-volume manufacturing. The award recipient cost share is required to be 50% or higher of the total allowable costs of the project.

Although lithium-ion cell and pack costs are expected to fall sharply by 2020, they are unlikely to drop enough to support widespread adoption of fully electric vehicles without a major breakthrough in battery technology, according to a new study by The Boston Consulting Group (BCG). Tradeoffs among five principle Li-ion chemistries.

Despite this, a 2003 EPRI study , assuming only $2/gallon gas , zero buying incentives, and a PHEV premium of $3-$5,000 more than standard hybrids, shows that the total lifetime cost of ownership for a PHEV will be lower than that of any other vehicle type -- so the payback will be there. What do environmental groups think of PHEVs?

General Motors Chevy Volt series PHEV, which it calls "extended range electric vehicle" (EREV), part of "E-Flex" multi-fuel platform. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle technologies are not yet competitive due primarily to the high cost of advanced batteries. Shifted earlier focus to all-electric Focus in 2011 with Magna.

A couple of drawbacks to consider might be the capitalization costs of building these stations and the batteries that they would have to have in stock. For extended range I guess one could carry a fairly modest generator set in the trunk to avoid ever being stranded. You could sit in your vehicle while the operation takes place.
