PHEVLERs are the Zero CO2 Clean Green Machines of the Future

Green Car Congress

The DC and fast charging infrastructures for BEVs are very expensive to construct [ 13 ] & operate, and are wasteful of electricity inversely to the square of charge time (meaning ½ the charge time 4 times the losses, and ⅓ the charge time 9 times the losses). PHEVLERs are better than BEVs in support of the electric grid.
