We previously wrote about the PHEV workshop at the international
EVS-23 conference at http://www.calcars.org/calcars-news/888.html ,
expressing our hope that the presentations could be made available
broadly for all those who weren't able to attend.

We're very pleased that that larger global audience, and those among
the 400+ attendees who were there taking photos of the screen images,
can now find PDFs of all the presentations at the Electric Drive
Transportation's website. Here's the announcement:

The presentations from the EVS-23 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle
Workshop that was held on December 2 in Anaheim are now available on
the EDTA website. The direct link is:

In related news, most people had assumed that in the just-signed
Energy Bill, with the financing provisions ($5,000 credits for PHEVs,
$2,500 for conversions) removed, there were no PHEV-related
provisions in the bill.

We'll have more to say about this as soon as we have time. But
meanwhile, EDTA has also provided a summary of the electrification
provisions at
http://www.electricdrive.org/index.php?tg=entry&idx=more&article=1677&idg=2

You can review these in depth on your own by looking at the full text
of HR 6, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, at
