Technical targets in the Blueprint fall into four areas: battery R&D; electric drive system R&D; vehicle lightweighting; and advanced climate control technologies. Climate control technologies. In September 2012, DOE requested public comment on an EV Everywhere Initial Framing Document. Earlier post.).

Further, they reported in their paper published in Nature Climate Change , the cost of battery packs used by market-leading BEV manufacturers are even lower at US$300/kWh, and has declined by 8% annually. From US$230 per kWh, costs need to fall a further third to reach US$150 per kWh. —Nykvist and Nilsson (2015). Batteries Forecasts'
