Abstract
The topic is Advance Trends in Hybrid vehicles. The hybrid vehicles is the different filed , and the types Power Measurement Ltd. designed the 7330 ION, a digital power meter/transducer that can perform over a hundred high-precision, three-phase measurements and replaces several traditional metering devices. The system can also cut wiring and space needs in switchboards, switchgear panels, or motor control centers. The 7330 ION can measure power quality on all voltage and current inputs in terms of individual and total harmonic distortion. The system also has better data logging, multi-port communications, I/O connectivity, and control capabilities. The system is ideal for applications which include feeder monitoring and outage direction.
IA-HEV drives hybrid and electric vehicles into the future
As attention turns to alternative fuels in the wake of rising oil prices, Martijn Van Walwijk talks about IA-HEV's role in bringing hybrid and electric vehicles to the global marketplace.
Martijn is the secretary to the IA-HEV, or Implementing Agreement for Co-operation on Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Technologies and Programmes, which is a collaborative group under the umbrella of the International Energy Agency (IEA).
The IEA is an international intergovernmental organisation focused on energy security, environmental protection and climate change.
Hybrid Vehicle Top Safety Pick
An auto insurance trade group, The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, has named a hybrid vehicle as a top safety pick. The Chevrolet Volt, a plug-in hybrid vehicle with a small gasoline engine, achieved the honor along with the all-electric Nissan Leaf. The Insurance Institute offered the judgment after the group’s first US crash tests of plug-in and pure electric cars. Anyone wondering if hybrid vehicles are going to be safe can rest easy.
Critics have long argued that hybrid vehicles could not be made economically and that safety would be compromised in the rush to “go green,” but the recent crash tests show that this is not the case. These hybrid vehicles are as safe or safer than any car produced today.
Electricity to power
“We’ve never been so busy – we’re in a real growth phase. New countries are joining us all the time, spurred on by rising fuel prices. We hope to continue to grow – and anticipate transportation and energy issues to feed into the group for at least the next decade. Moving forward, we will be increasingly focusing on plug-in hybrids and working hard towards the widespread introduction of electricity into the transport sector.”
