Electricity and electromagnetism: 3-8-04 Gary Flomenhoft, BSME, MAPP, CEE Research Associate Gund Institute, SNR
Restructuring PURPA-Public Utilities Regulatory Policy Act Stranded costs-if consumers choose other suppliers Avoided cost: payback rate to independant producers
Electricity Coulomb= unit of charge Electrical current = flow of electrons Potential difference = voltage
Batteries and Electric cars Electrolyte = chemical in a battery
Electric Vehicles 1st Wave 1890-1920 The years 1899 and 1900 were the high point of electric vehicles in America, as they outsold all other types of cars. Source: US DOE “Better batteries 10 years away” “Liars, damn liars, and battery manufacturers.” -Thomas Edison (Ni-Fe)
1980’s 2nd Wave of EVs Jet Industries: Citi-Car (Beaumont) Electricar Lectra “Better batteries 10 years away”
1990 CA Air Resources Board Mandates * Requirement modified in 1996
ZEV EMISSIONS Do ZEVs simply shift air emissions from one place to another? Source: CA Air ResourcesBoard Even when taking into account power plant emissions, ZEVs are 95% cleaner than even the lowest emitting conventional vehicle.
EVs 3rd Wave 1990+: First Phase = (Small Conversion companies) Solar Electric Engineering (US Electricar) “Better batteries 10 years away”
1990’s 2nd Phase: Small Corporations, US Solectria: Corbin: Tropica (Beaumont) “Better batteries 10 years away”

Future Hybrid Electric Vehicles Nissan Tino Nissan's Hybrid Vehicle(HV) is called the Tino. It is powered by a combination of a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine and an electric motor with lithium-ion batteries. The vehicle is a five passenger car that achieves twice the fuel economy and 50% less emissions. Nissan's Tino hybrid electric car will be sold only in Japan, initially. 2006 Ford Futura
