EPRI Journal--Driving the Solution: the Plug-In Hybrid Vehicle
DRIVING THE SOLUTION THE PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE by Lucy Sanna The Story in Brief As automakers gear up to satisfy a growing market for fuel-efficient hybrid electric vehicles, the next- generation hybrid is already cruis- ing city streets, and it can literally run on empty. The plug-in hybrid charges directly from the electricity grid, but unlike its electric vehicle brethren, it sports a liquid fuel tank for unlimited driving range. The technology is here, the electricity infrastructure is in place, and the plug-in hybrid offers a key to replacing foreign oil with domestic resources for energy indepen- dence, reduced CO2 emissions, and lower fuel costs. DRIVING THE SOLUTION THE PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE by Lucy Sanna n November 2005, the first few proto vide a variety of battery options tailored 2004, more than half of which came from Itype plugin hybrid electric vehicles to specific applications—vehicles that can imports.

Gasoline-Electric Hybrid Synergy Drive
Gasoline-Electric Hybrid Synergy Drive AHV40 Series Foreword In March 2006, Toyota released the Toyota CAMRY gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle in North America. Except where noted in this guide, basic vehicle systems and features for the CAMRY hybrid are the same as those on the conventional, non-hybrid, Toyota CAMRY. To educate and assist emergency responders in the safe handling of the CAMRY hybrid technology, Toyota published this CAMRY hybrid Emergency Response Guide. High voltage electricity powers the electric motor, generator, A/C compressor, and inverter/converter. All other automotive electrical devices such as the headlights, power steering, horn, radio, and gauges are powered from a separate 12 Volts battery. Numerous safeguards have been designed into the CAMRY to help ensure the high voltage, approximately 245 Volts, Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) Hybrid Vehicle (HV) battery pack is kept safe and secure in an accident. Additional topics contained in the guide include: N Toyota CAMRY identification. N Major hybrid component locations and descriptions. By following the information in this guide, dismantlers will be able to handle the CAMRY hybrid-electric vehicle as safely as the dismantling of a conventional gasoline engine automobile. ¤ 2006 Toyota Motor Corporation All rights reserved.

Electric Vehicles: a Primer on Technology and Selected Policy Issues
Electric Vehicles: A Primer on Technology and Selected Policy Issues February 14, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R46231 SUMMARY R46231 Electric Vehicles: A Primer on Technology and February 14, 2020 Selected Policy Issues Melissa N. Diaz The market for electrified light-duty vehicles (also called passenger vehicles; including passenger Analyst in Energy Policy cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, and minivans) has grown since the 1990s. During this decade, the first contemporary hybrid-electric vehicle debuted on the global market, followed by the introduction of other types of electric vehicles (EVs). By 2018, electric vehicles made up 4.2% of the 16.9 million new light-duty vehicles sold in the United States that year. Meanwhile, charging infrastructure grew in response to rising electric vehicle ownership, increasing from 3,394 charging stations in 2011 to 78,301 in 2019. However, many locations have sparse or no public charging infrastructure. Electric motors and traction battery packs—most commonly made up of lithium-ion battery cells—set EVs apart from internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). The battery pack provides power to the motor that drives the vehicle. At times, the motor acts as a generator, sending electricity back to the battery. The broad categories of EVs can be identified by whether they have an internal combustion engine (i.e., hybrid vehicles) and whether the battery pack can be charged by external electricity (i.e., plug-in electric vehicles). The numerous vehicle technologies further determine characteristics such as fuel economy rating, driving range, and greenhouse gas emissions. EVs can be separated into three broad categories: Hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs): The internal combustion engine primarily powers the wheels.

Ofﬁcial Publication of Clean Cities and the Alternative Fuels and Advanced Vehicles Data Center Vol. 13, No. 1 - February 2009 Clean Cities Now (www.eere.energy.gov/cleancities/ccn) is the official publication ofClean Cities, an initiative of the U.S. Department of Energy designed to reduce petroleum consumption in the transportation sector by advancing the use of alternative fuel vehicles, idle reduction technologies, hybrid electric vehicles, fuel blends, and fuel economy. I-65 is Nation’s First Biofuels Corridor Interstate 65, extending 886 miles between Gary, Indiana, and Mobile, Alabama, is the nation’s first “biofuels corridor.” In 2005, there were no biofuel stations along I-65. Today the corridor designation means that a driver is no more than 100 miles from a participating E85 retailer. The $1.3 million federal project funded 31 E85 and five B20 stations and one biodiesel blending facility located on the Indiana-Ohio border. Matching funds for construction and conversion were provided by individual infrastructure owners. E85, a blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline for use in flexible fuel vehicles, and B20, a blend of 20% biodiesel and 80% petroleum-based diesel for use in diesel vehicles, are fuels made with renewable agricultural products. The corridor, which spans four states, was completed thanks to the Indiana Office of Energy and Defense Development (IOEDD), which worked with Carl Lisek of Indiana’s South Shore Clean Cities, Kellie Walsh of Central Indiana Clean Cities, Melissa Howell of the Common- wealth Clean Cities Partnership (CCCP) in Kentucky, and Mark Bentley of the Alabama Clean Fuels Coalition (ACFC).
