Abstract

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) have the potential to displace a significant amount of petroleum relative to conventional vehicles. It is anticipated that home charging at night (roughly once a day) would be the usual mode of operation for PHEVs. Opportunity charging could provide additional electric range. Our analysis have shown that a PHEV-20 with opportunity charging during the day would reduce fuel consumption by 71% whereas a PHEV-40 with only night charging reduces fuel by 66% relative to a conventional vehicle. A PHEV-20 with smaller battery reduces the initial purchase cost; however, our analysis shows that charging more frequently could reduce the life of the battery.
