A study by researchers at the University of Texas found that in general, use of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) can lead to an increase in ozone during nighttime hours (due to decreased scavenging from both vehicles and EGU stacks) and a decrease in ozone during daytime hours.

As a BYD investor, I'm upset to see them waste so much money on dead technologies like PHEVs/EREVs. Swapping out CO2 for other toxins like ozone and nitrogen oxides is not a solution. As the economies of scale disappear for ICE, so too will they disappear for hybrids that depend on the existence of ICE.

Researchers from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) have performed life cycle assessments (LCA) of three batteries for plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and full performance battery electric (BEV) vehicles. Click to enlarge. They also found higher life cycle global warming emissions than have been previously reported.

EPA is also not proposing to restore multiplier incentives for BEVs, PHEVs and fuel cell vehicles, which currently end after MY 2024 under existing regulations. EPA is proposing new battery durability requirements for light-duty and medium-duty BEVs and PHEVs.

For passenger vehicles, the State SIP Strategy includes actions to increase the penetration of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and ZEVs, including battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. emissions by more than 20%. emissions by more than 20%.

ARB staff developed this strategy using a multi-pollutant scenario planning tool ( Vision 2.0 ) that quantifies changes in ozone and PM 2.5 Additionally, ARB would consider new standards to increase the sales of ZEVs and PHEVs beyond the levels required in 2025 to ensure future emission reduction, climate, and petroleum targets are met.
