Hybrid & PHEV Vehicles
Development and testing is progressing on the new IPLC/PHEV Meter. Testing is in the second year on this unit which is intended to be used to monitor ongoing electricity consumption on Hybrid and PHEV vehicles. This unit remains with the vehicle and does not lose functionality or data even when it is unplugged from the grid. This stays with the vehicle from location to location. This unit records the electricity consumed by the vehicle. As the market of hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) increases so will the demand for electricity at the workplace. This meter will monitor the electricity used and therefore make it possible for the lot owners to charge for this service.
