Google, a well renowned company especially known for its search engine, is presently working on an efficient way of plug in Hybrid charging for plug in vehicles. The idea is to integrate the the plugin vehicles to the power grid and to manage the plugin charging load when millions of people in future after going back to homes from their offices will plugin their vehicles at the same time.
This project is being taken owing to the increasing public interest in the electric vehicles.
Google has so far worked on software for managing such a large number of vehicles integrated on a power grid. After having done this, google will be heading forward to set up an infrastructure. Dan Reicher, google director of climate change and Energy Initiatives, says:"We have begun some work on smart charging of electric vehicles and how you would integrate large number of electric vehicles into the grid successfully.We have done a little bit of work on the software side looking at how you would write a computer code to manage this sort of charging infrastructure".
Google has been taking interest in the auto sector previously as well.In 2007, google announced to test the Toyota Prius and Ford Escape plugin hybrid vehicles. If the google successfully sets up a software that could manage such a large number of plugin vehicles, then this charging technology is going to be quite efficient.
Reicher says: "We got to be careful how we manage these things. On a hot day in July when 5 million Californians come home, you don't want them all plugging in at the same moment."
Google is dedicated to bring such technologies in the market which are ecofriendly and make this earth a place to live for the next generations to come.
