DOE findings on TCO: ICE, HEV's, PHEV's, & BEV's
Spoiler: HEV's show lowest TCO
Latest DOE study conducted by Argonne Labs: https://publications.anl.gov/anlpubs/2021/05/167399.pdf
Summation (bold mine): "Comparing across powertrains, the HEV is the vehicle powertrain with the lowest cost of ownership over a 15-year span, at 44.6¢/mile. The ICE-SI, ICE-CI, FCEV, and PHEV50 all have costs around 48¢/mile. The BEV300 has the highest cost, at 51.8¢/mile, though the shorter-range BEV200 (not pictured) has a cost of 45.3¢/mile. The comparatively high costs for BEV300 come from assumed battery costs of $170/kWh in 2025 in the Autonomie model (Islam et al. 2020), though BEV would reach cost parity with HEV at a cost of $102/kWh. For all powertrains, the vehicle cost is the single most expensive cost over the 15-year analysis window. Maintenance and repair taken together is the second most expensive for all powertrain types except FCEV. For petroleum-fueled... -
EV tax credits developments
I am dedicating this thread to developments for the EV tax credits proposed by Biden administration.
The first news is that it looks like people earning over $100,000 or buying EVs priced over $40,000 will no longer be able to claim the EV tax credit.

World's Biggest EV: It's all downhill from here
A cement factory in Switzerland is now using the world's largest EV to haul rocks.
The particulars of the operation mean that the rock and lime need to be hauled down a hill for processing, so they never need to charge the truck. It climbs back up the hill empty using energy drawn from regeneration on the way down.
Now, it is still a cement factory, and they are notorious for CO2 production so I suppose this is like going through your nuclear bomb collection and proudly stating that no child labor was used to produce it.
But it's still kind of neat that they built a giant EV that doesn't need to be plugged in.
