This video was produced when the laboratory operated as the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The laboratory is now the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR). Electric vehicle (EV) technology has advanced rapidly since its introduction, and today there are many plug-in hybrid and battery EV options available on the market. But how do EVs work and what are their advantages? In this video you’ll learn about different EV types and their driving ranges, regenerative braking and drivetrain modes, electric vehicle supply equipment, and EV energy consumption and reporting.
