New Technologies? • Most customers are unwilling to accept compromises for the sake of new technology • New automotive technologies must be: • Transparent to the user • Reliable and durable as present vehicles • Offer consistent performance • Offer benefits to most users • Detriments to few.
New Technologies • New automotive technologies at Toyota & Lexus: • Gasoline Direct Injection (D-4) • Clean Diesel (D-CAT) • Bio-Fuels (E10-E15; E100) • LPG / CNG • Gas-To-Liquid (Fischer-Tropsch diesel) • H2 (FCHV) • PHEVs

Conventional brakes use mechanical friction to slow the vehicle. • Kinetic energy is lost as heat. • Regenerative braking uses the motor as a generator to slow the vehicle. • Kinetic energy of the decelerating vehicle is recovered into a battery. • Regenerative braking uses the motor as a generator to slow the vehicle. Kinetic energy of the decelerating vehicle is recovered into the hybrid battery. Regenerative Braking
State of Charge (SOC) • SOC determines charge acceptance rate
Electronically Controlled Braking Toyota Hybrid System
Plug-ins Defined • A Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) is a hybrid gasoline-electric vehicle, • with greater battery capacity • (than a “regular” hybrid), • in which the battery can be directly charged from an external power source • “Plugged in,” vs. passive charging from the engine • May have the capability of driving in electric-only mode. • Also called “Grid-connected hybrid” • often refers to the vehicle providing power back to the grid
Industry Overview Aren’t all hybrids the same?How long do they last?What’s the next new technology?

Plug-ins changethe source of the emissions • Unless the electricity used to charge the battery comes from a clean, renewable source (wind, solar, nuclear) … • plug-ins trade tailpipe emissions for emissions from the power plant.
CO2 Reduction Prius EquivalentVehicle LA#4 China U.S. 1.0 Well to Wheel CO2 Emissions (Prius=1) Japan 0.5 France 0.0 Prius Plug-in • When electricity is generated from low-carbon sources,the CO2 emissions of a PHV can be lower than an HV Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles offer a minimal advantage over the best hybrids, given the mix of power sources in the US. The advantage of PHVs is greatest in France, where nuclear power generationis common. There would be a significant disadvantage to PHVs in China, which mainly burns coal for power generation.

PHEV Marketability Issues Batteries for EV drive range current Prius battery Currently, the large increase in battery loadmeans there is no commercial potential. To provide 60km (40 mi) of electric drive range would require about 12 times the battery capacity of the current Prius.
High-power plug for EV Charging • Two charging types: “Slow” • Low charge rate (~ 1 kW/hr = overnight) • for home • e.g. e-Com “Fast” • High charge rate (~5.7 kW/hr = several hours) • for office/industrial/parking garage (but not retail service stations) • e.g. RAV4-EV Available Voltage Japan : 100V/200V Europe : 220V US : 120V/240V
Increasing Li Ion Battery Technology – Development and Testing Most “advanced” Li-Ion batteries Single Cell Full Packs Real World Modules • Limited “real world” knowledge in vehicle applications: • Toyota has experience with mild-hybrid “start-stop” Vitz • Limited number of conversions & specialty vehicles • Must gain experience with Li-Ion technology in HEV before PHEV • Key issues to be resolved • Safety & thermal runaway • Durability (life of vehicle) & reliability (≥ NiMH) • Cost • End-of-life recycling
Technology of Choice? “Today it requires removal of the spare tire for a 5kw (160 lb) battery range extender module … at a projected (wholesale) cost of $12,500 or more to modify a hybrid Prius into a PHEV.” 1 “Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles can achieve as much as 70 mpg … with up to 50 km (33 mi) EV range.2 “The mass market will not pay $10,000 or $15,000 over the cost of an already pricey hybrid for the privilege of driving on battery power.”3 • Clean Transportation, San Diego Gas & Electric - http://www.sdge.com/cleantransportation (2007). • Google.org PHEV demonstration project –http://www.RechargeIT.org (2007). • 3. Green Car Journal , Ron Cogan, ed. (Summer 2007).
State of Battery Technology • Senate Testimony of Dr. M. Anderman – Jan. 26, 2007 • President of Advanced Automotive Batteries “It is our opinion that wide–spread commercialization of plug-in hybrids with the range of 20 miles or more is only possible if there is notable improvement in battery performance, proven battery longevity, and reliability in well-designed lab and field tests … along with a significant reduction in battery cost.” “It is also our opinion that as far as electric drive technology is concerned, HEV technology is the only one mature enough for its market growth to have an impact on the nation’s energy usage in the next 10 years.” see Menahem Anderman, Ph.D., “Advanced Automotive Battery Industry Report” (April 2007)
For Commercialization, PHEVs need . . . • Significant battery development • An official test cycle for economy & emissions • - Industry, Government, & Regulatory consensus • Standardized and available infrastructure • Govt and Industry support
