A survey on power levels of battery charging and infrastructure for plug-in electric and hybrid vehicles

Hybrid electric vehicle is an integration of conventional internal combustion engine and electric propulsion systems. Hybrid electric vehicles have tempted many people as their mode of transport which is going to be the next biggest global market in the upcoming years due to lack of fuel based energy and emission from the exhaust that ultimately leads global warming. Hybrid electric vehicles reduce the overall cost of fuel and have good economic impact on the global society. The development of hybrid electric vehicle is fast picking up its pace to be the next generation of the mode of transport. This paper explains the overview of hybrid electric vehicles, classification of hybrid electric vehicle, battery chargers, charging level infrastructure, Issues and opportunities.
