The main issues of hybrid propulsion systems are discussed in this chapter, drawing attention to basic characteristics of power train components and aspects of energy management within each hybrid configuration. The main characteristics of electric drives are described in Sect. 5.2, different types of electric energy storage systems are analyzed in Sect. 5.3 and Sect. 5.4, while different configurations of hybrid electric vehicles are discussed in Sect. 5.5, with particular reference to fuel cell propulsion systems (Sect. 5.5.4). [Pg.131]

The general theme of electric vehicles is covered in Chap. 5, with particular reference to hybrid vehicles that adopt both fuel cells and batteries/supercapacitors as power sources. The analysis of possible hybrid configurations is presented together with a review of different types of electric energy storage systems. [Pg.252]

The revived interest in electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and energy storage systems for utilities has accelerated the development of larger-sized rechargeable batteries. Because of the low specific energy of lead-acid batteries and the still unresolved problems with the high temperature batteries, the nickel-metal hydride battery is currently the battery system of choice for hybrid electric vehicles. This subject is covered in another new chapter. Chapter 30 Propulsion and Industrial Nickel-Metal Hydride Batteries. ... [Pg.16]

Though sodium-sulfur batteries have been under development for many years, major problems still exists with material stability. It is likely that the first commercial uses of this batteiy will not be for electric vehicles. Sodium-sulfur storage batteries may be more well-suited for hybrid electric vehicles or as part of a distributed energy resources system to provide power ill remote areas or to help meet municipal peak power requirements.

High-power lithium-ion batteries are promising alternatives to the nickel metal hydride batteries which are currently used for energy storage in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). Currently, Li(Ni,Co)02-based materials are the most widely studied cathode materials for the high-power lithium-ion batteries [1-4]. Although Li(Ni,Co)02-based materials meet the initial power requirement for the HEY application, however, it has been reported that they... [Pg.510]
