READ MOREIn the coming years, Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) will strongly penetrate in the car fleet. Currently, this theme represents an important area of research. In this paper, we proposed and make available all tools to conduct research on the impact of PHEVs on electric grids or to realize the energy management for Vehicle-to
READ MOREPlug-in hybrid electric vehicles (or PHEVs) allow drivers to travel moderate distances on pure electric power without having to worry about getting stranded by an empty battery.
READ MOREPlug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) use batteries to power an electric motor, as well as another fuel, such as gasoline or diesel, to power an internal combustion engine or other propulsion source. PHEVs can charge their batteries through charging equipment and regenerative braking. Using electricity from the grid to run the vehicle some
READ MOREA "plug-in" or "pluggable" hybrid (PHEV) uses HEV technology, but it features a larger battery and a plug-in charger. Most PHEV prototypes contain a battery capable of powering the vehicle between 20 and 60 miles (about 30–100 km) on electricity alone (Denholm and Short, 2006) 2008, General Motors (2008), for example, began
READ MOREA plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is a smart choice for a lot of shoppers and a great way to experiment with the EV lifestyle. A PHEV vehicle combines a short electric range — enough for a short commute to work or go do errands — with hybrid efficiency. When the range is depleted, the car switches to a combination of gas and
