The studies tackle the issue of the direct application of these electrical storage devices, the regenerative braking and the extension of the cycle life of Li-ion batteries. The school is working on the research and development of Li-ion batteries and aqueous supercapacitors.

Worldwide annual consumption of lithium grew from 15,100 tonnes in 2003 to 37,000 tonnes by 2012, a 145% increase; demand is expected to rise even further with the move towards sustainable power and electrical storage capacity increases. Indeed, the extraction of lithium from coal would offer an ironic twist to its continued use.

That is, PHEVLERs can store electricity whenever sun and wind-generated electricity is plentiful, and then can send stored power back into the smart grid at times when more electric power is needed. PHEVLERs are better than BEVs in support of the electric grid. PHEVLERs use Clean Fuels to Reduce Air Pollution.

That means millions of electricity storage units – the batteries – are available to the electric grid to serve peak demand, with the vehicles recharging during non-peak hours. The thinking goes like this: Most vehicles are stationary 95 percent of the time. It’s a technology worth our attention.

In California, 20% of our electricity comes from zero CO2 renewables (sun, wind, geothermal), another 20% from zero CO2 hydro, and only 20.1% As more renewables come online, battery electrics just keep getting cleaner and greener. The combined electrical storage efficiency of charger and batteries is 85%.

It’s getting cleaner and prospects are improving BY TIM BENFORD: PRESIDENT OF DRIVE ELECTRIC DAYTON, PAST VICE-PRESIDENT OF ELECTRIC AUTO ASSOCIATION. Is it becoming cleaner? When EV batteries degrade enough to be unsuitable for cars (about 70% capacity remaining), they are re-used for electricity storage.
