Why hybrid vehicles? 1. Oil CO2
Why hybrid vehicles?

Earth temperature
Figure 1. Left: The world’s production of oil and gas and the projection of availability of reserves calculated on
the basis of consumption in 2005 (Gboe = Giga billion barrels oil equivalent). Right: The increase of CO2
concentration in the atmosphere and the mean earth temperature.
Fossil fuels have two disadvantages:
ƒ their reserves are final
ƒ by extracting the carbon on the surface of the earth and by its combustion the amount of CO2 in the
atmosphere is increasing by which the greenhouse effect is amplified and that contributes to the global
warming.
The Association of Constructors of European Automobiles ACEA, motivated by Kyoto protocol, has set the
goal that by the year 2008 the CO2 emission of entire fleet of passenger cars should not be larger than 140 g/km.
As a consequence of using relatively high power engines this goal could not be achieved even if all vehicles
would be powered by diesel engines. But hybrid vehicles easily achive this emission level and therefore in the
forthcoming years they will receive more and more attention.
Figure 2. Left: goal of ACEA group: to lower the CO2 emission of the entire fleet of European constructor’s
passenger cars to 140 g/km by the year 2008. Right: the expected future increase of alternative vehicle drives.

2. Hybrid drive systems
Hybrid drive systems can, on the basis of the link between mechanical and electrical part, be divided in three
groups:
ƒ series,
ƒ paralel and
ƒ series – paralel hybrid.
On the other hand, on the basis of electrical drive autonomy, hybrids are divided into:
ƒ mild hybrid and
ƒ full hybrid.

Figure 4. The comparison of internal combustion engine operation at conventional and hybrid vehicle in
engine fuel consumption map.
In the hybrid vehicle the internal combustion engine operates in the region of minimum specific fuel
consumption, and the excess power, that is a result of difference between generated power and power needed
for drive, is transferred to generator that charges the battery. In Prius the generator also supplies energy for
electric motor that helps the IC engine
