Engineer Chris Playland from CSIRO's Low Emission Distributed Energy section says the PHEV adaptation will not only allow hybrids to be driven further on low-emission electrical power--up to 40 km instead of fuel, but will also turn the parked car into a 6 kWh battery bank for a family home.
The acceleration of lithium-ion battery development is a key step in the successful commercialization of PHEVs, which will be capable of traveling up to 40 miles without recharging," the DOE said in a statement today.
On the other hand, in some areas where wind or hydropower is wasted at night--just when the PHEV would be charging--the utility might drop the kilowatt hour cost to two to three cents, making the charge much less costly.
