Presumably the greater share for BEVs is due to their increased average range vs. PHEVs.. . . Noteworthy is that the share of consumption by all-electric vehicles increased over time and in 2017 stood at 57%, compared to 43% for plug-in hybrids. Five years ago, it was the opposite.
Total electricity consumption by PEV:
- 2011 – 0.02 TWh
2012 – 0.11 TWh (up 450%)
2013 – 0.32 TWh (up 191%)
2014 – 0.63 TWh (up 97%)
2015 – 0.97 TWh (up 54%)
2016 – 1.38 TWh (up 42%)
2017 – 1.94 TWh (up 41%) . . . .
