On June 22, 2006, the South Coast Air Quality
Management District conducted a half-day informational briefing on Plug-in Hybrid
Electric Vehicles. This emerging clean air technology is the next step
forward in the advancement of hybrid electric vehicles. A plug-in hybrid
electric vehicle differs from a standard hybrid vehicle by having an
increased-capacity battery pack that can be recharged by plugging it into an
electrical outlet when the vehicle is parked.
A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle can operate for a
longer period on just electricity, relying less on the vehicle’s gasoline
engine to recharge the battery. This reduces fuel consumption and tailpipe
emissions. The AQMD is sponsoring several prototype Plug-in Hybrid Electric
Vehicle (PHEV) demonstrations, and has joined the "Plug-in Partners" a
national campaign to educate potential fleet users, municipal utilities, and
local officials.
