Using a micro-hybrid system featuring carbon/carbon ultracapacitor units as energy storage can result in significant increases in fuel economy over a baseline conventional vehicle, according to a study by Dr. Andrew Burke at UC Davis. In this mode, the engine both recharges the ultracapacitors and provides power to drive the vehicle.

The home, located on the West Village campus of the University of California, Davis, is capable of producing more energy on-site from renewable sources than it consumes annually, including enough energy to power a Honda Fit EV for daily commuting. Honda Smart Home is expected to generate a surplus of 2.6 Geothermal radiant heating & cooling.

Electric cars store their energy in a lithium-ion battery, which powers an electric engine. This reduces wear and tear on the brake pads and also helps recharge the vehicle to provide longer range. In urban driving, when the PHEV has a chance to recharge through regenerative braking, the range may be longer.
