In the most recent period, gasoline and diesel are still the main energy sources of the car. The new energy vehicles need to be solved in the near future. The new medium of the internal combustion engine and the alternative combustion vehicles. The medium-term scheme is to reduce the fuel consumption and emissions of the hybrid vehicles. The program is pure electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles. While new energy vehicles offer a wide range of alternative fuels for fuel-based fuels, hybrid vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles that use fuel and power systems for automotive hydrogen fuel cells, but because of the current level of technological development, search for a wide range of alternative fuels, the development of closer to the market of hybrid technology, is the development of alternative energy is the most practical step. And pure electric vehicles and hydrogen fuel cells because of its technology is still difficult to achieve a revolutionary breakthrough, it is difficult to become the automotive industry's recent development goals. In today's social situation, the hybrid can be a better solution to fuel consumption problems and pollution problems. It will mainly introduce the advantages and feasibility of hybrid.

Presence of an alternative energy source along with the Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) appeals for optimal power split between them for minimum fuel consumption and maximum power utilization. Hence HEVs provide better fuel economy compared to ICE based vehicles/conventional vehicle. Energy management strategies are the algorithms that decide the power split between engine and motor in order to improve the fuel economy and optimize the performance of HEVs. This paper describes various energy management strategies available in the literature. A lot of research work has been conducted for energy optimization and the same is extended for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs). This paper concentrates on the battery powered hybrid vehicles. Numerous methods are introduced in the literature and based on these, several control strategies are proposed. These control strategies are summarized here in a coherent framework. This paper will serve as a ready reference for the researchers working in the area of energy optimization of hybrid vehicles.

AbstractThe article discusses the development of the world EV fleet in years 2010-2017. Estimates of fleet of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) and BEV in the world are presented. The total number of PHEVs registered in the world in 2016 was roughly 800 thousand (650 thousand in EU). Despite the fact that the sale of electric vehicles has increased considerably in recent years, in particular over 1.1 million in 2017, and also hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) to approx. 760 thousand in 2017. The article also discusses the development of the electric vehicles market and annual new registrations of vehicles in a breakdown into respective countries. China is the definite leader in this area. In 2017 there were almost twice more BEVs registered in China than in the US and EU together. While the increase in the sale of BEVs in years 2016-2017 in the EU and the US accounted for approx. 50%, it came to over 90% in China. Among eight top worldwide BEV producers, there are four Chinese manufacturers. In the analysed 2017, there were slightly more than 7 thousand of hydrogen-fuelled passenger cars (FCEV) in use, with over 3,500 in the US, 2,300 in Japan and approx. 1,200 in Europe, and several hundred hydrogen-fuelled buses and several dozen hydrogen-fuelled trucks. The article also addresses the development of hydrogen refuelling stations (HRS) in recent years in different countries in the world, bearing in mind that the quantitative development of the hydrogen-fuelled car fleet is strongly associated with the number of hydrogen refuelling stations.
