I suspect a detailed analysis of hybrid (especially plug-in hybrid) vehicles and the current state of the grid would yield much more positive results than the 2001 article.

A correct detailed analysis of hybrid vehicles in 2001 would have yielded a much more positive result. History since then has made that clear.
