Summary This analysis builds on a previous report, which analyzed the average total cost of ownership for the same electric and gasoline vehicle. Since EV drivers in California often experience a different cost of living than the rest of the country, including higher electricity prices on average and higher vehicle registration fees, we decided to …
The US electric grid is under unprecedented pressure. Rising and concentrated electricity demand is pushing transmission lines to their limits, while extreme weather events and unexpected increases in industrial use are testing a system that wasn't built for surprises. And the grid can't keep up—every storm, every heat wave, every new data center continues to …

Like hybrids, plug-in electric vehicles (or PHEVs) have an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. Plug-in vehicles take the hybrid philosophy a step further by installing a larger battery that can be charged externally. The idea is that you can drive short distances, usually 30-60km, using only the electric motor. The engine can add …

Hydrogen electric vehicles, often called hydrogen fuel cell cars (FCEV), drive in the same way as conventional EVs. They can have one or more electric motors. However, instead of a large battery pack, they have a hydrogen tank that can be filled with gas (or a liquid form of hydrogen) at the same time to …

Conventional hybrid cars run on gasoline or diesel but usually use very little of it. Although they have an electric motor and a small battery pack, the batteries cannot be charged externally. Instead, the batteries are charged when the vehicles are moving slowly and the electric scooter switches roles to become a generator for a …
