Plug‐in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) have the potential to displace transportation fuel consumption by using grid electricity to drive the car. To find the equivalent electric range, it is useful to compare the fuel economy of a blended mode PHEV during charge‐depletion (CD) mode to that of a comparable HEV. For pure EVs, the fuel economy is best described by electricity consumption for a certain range. The goal of power management in a PHEV is to minimize the fuel consumption for a given drive scenario. The main components of a PHEV are the powertrain motor and the battery pack. The battery sizing is similar to the battery sizing of an extended range electric vehicle (EREV), that is, the equivalent electric distance required for the PHEV. The concept of vehicle‐to‐grid (V2G) is that the energy stored within PHEV batteries can be utilized to send power back to the grid.
