Interest is growing in hybrid vehicles that can recharge from wall-plug energy because of their high fuel economy and the potential to reduce petroleum use. Therefore, the Office of FreedomCAR and Vehicle Technologies (OFCVT) convened a 2-day discussion meeting of over 120 experts representing the automotive and electric utility industries, national labs and academia to discuss technical and economic issues related to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, or PHEVs. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) must ascertain whether the national benefits of PHEVs warrant support for R&D to make the vehicles cost-effective and to ensure that the electric power grid can supply the load.
