Abstract This proposed study focuses on assessing the demand for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) in Wisconsin and its economic impacts on the State's energy market and the electric grid. PHEVs are expected to provide a range of about 40 miles per drive cycle using plug-in recharging from the electric grid, in addition to the virtually unlimited range offered by conventional and hybrid vehicles. Given the concern over global warming and the need for reducing America's dependence on foreign oil, PHEVs are among the emerging ‘green' alternatives to conventional fossil-fuel vehicles. Although they are recognized to have the potential to play a key role in climate change and energy security strategies, projected levels of market adoption, charging patterns, and impacts on electricity market and infrastructure supply are uncertain.
