Here's what's going to happen: You get your new LEAF or Volt. And everyone entering the store passes the empty space, the "charger" standing sentry inconveniencing the "real" cars while suggesting government waste on another failed project. A charge station appears at the grocery store you frequent. You plug it in, but nothing happens.

Virtually everywhere that alternating current must be transformed to direct current or vice versa, there will be fewer wasted watts. In the effort to mitigate climate change, eliminating waste in power consumption is the low-hanging fruit, and these semiconductors are the way we’ll harvest it. electron volts, as compared with 3.40

To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. It is alarming to see comparisons of the Chevrolet Volt PHEV with battery electric cars when the comparison focuses only on the electric range and ignores the other important differences. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop.

Going from the traditional 12/24-volt DC electric system to one using 240 volts AC will typically require one-eighth or less of the current to deliver the same power. Many current designs operate at 800 volts or more, making the vehicles even more efficient.

You can fill it up at the gas station, and you can plug it in to any 120-volt outlet. Its like having a second fuel tank that you always use first -- only you fill up at home, from a regular outlet, at an equivalent cost of under $1/gallon. A PHEV is essentially a regular hybrid with an extension cord. You dont have to plug it in.

If compression continues after the reaction happens, it fights against the pressure generated by the reaction, wasting energy. As the translator moves back and forth in a straight line inside the coils, the magnets generate current that feeds an 800-volt DC bus. If compression stops too soon, the reaction never happens.

The basic equation governing the charging of batteries is W = V * A, or to put it into words, Watts equals Volts times Amps. The cost of putting these on major freeways would be very high but the technology already exists. This would give the EV almost unlimited range over any freeway system so equipped.
