Separate names with a comma.
Grumpy, You are not thick, your questions are valid and worries in place. The exact mechanism of PiP batteries strategies is still unknown. We...
Toyota Motor Europe (TME) won the 2011 Green Manufacturing Award at the 5th Annual Strategic Manufacturing Awards held recently in Düsseldorf,...
Shortage is certainly over in Japan: Prius sales: 29,632 in October, 33,197 in September. CT200h sales: 1815 in October, 13,672 since introduction.
Its a debate of deaves (I am one of them but feels I am not the only one). Let me try and summarise what we can agree upon: Zythryn decided (for...
Welcome and congrats! I wish I had mine in F sport trim, they do not market it in Israel.
Good point. However I do not have data on those.
Thanks for the chart. My number (coming from CMU if I recollect correctly) is 30% of burning emission, that's 30/130=23% of total emissions. Not...

You are an experienced Prius driver, apparently the OP is not (but will be soon).
With a Prius, the PV panels will balance out carbon sourced electricity produced by operating other appliences (whether yours or somebody elses)....
Agree, and would like to add: The break-even-point for an average Volt driver (67% EV according to GM) - as compared to Gen3 Prius - is a local...
Zythryn, You are putting 10 kWh into the grid during daylight (in a sunny day) and help 'shaving the peak'. This is commendable and worth a...
You may not like it but I am afraid you cannot run away from it... Installing PV panels is certainly a good move to help cleaning your grid (hope...
Yes, it purposely applies to the average driver. As for the CO2 intensity of the grid - you should find out where your local grid is. In this...
So, its a matter of reducing running costs isn't it? Nothing to do with 'cleaning the grid'.
As I understand, Zythryn replaced his Prius with a Volt and installed a PV array on his roof - an array which would not have been installed...
In another thread, I have plotted the Volt total CO2 emissions (including gasoline upstream emissions) as a function of the electrical grid CO2...
About 65-73 inches to the front seat (dependin on its position).
3.6 kWh is taken from the prototype vehicle but it had 5.2 kWh battery. This leads me to believe that the 10-15 miles of the PiP will use less...
Which costs less in Carbon footprint I wonder?
