This leads to scenarios where light duty vehicles are largely electrified, while aviation, marine and heavy duty continue to rely on liquids fuels. Battery costs will fall, and the market will move well beyond early adopters. The first is that the cost of batteries for larger vehicle sizes (i.e. —Yang et al.

Converted Plug-In Hybrid Electric Terminal Tractor to be Tested at Port of Long Beach

Green Car Congress

US Hybrid Corporation performed the conversion which uses a 33 kWh Li-ion battery pack from GAIA. As a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) the tractor will be able to move containers weighing up to 95,000 pounds as its diesel counterparts can, but unlike diesels will not idle its engine when inactive. kW charger.

Marine scrubbers. Marine scrubbing is technically feasible—several companies have successfully tested the technology on demonstration projects. Moreover, while PHEVs have the potential to be emission-free, the reduction in GHG emissions is highly dependent on the generation mix and will therefore vary by country.

Inaugural Quadrennial Technology Review report concludes DOE is underinvested in transport; greatest efforts to go to electrification

Green Car Congress

DOE’s investment strategy does not preclude the market from selecting mild or strong hybrid, plug-in hybrid, battery-electric, or even fuel cell vehicles as the end point for electrification. DOE will focus on partial electrification because hybrid electric (HEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric (PHEVs) can access existing infrastructure.
