The important control parameters for the hybrid electric vehicle are the lower and upper limit of state of charge (SOC). The vehicle’s onboard energy system defined the fuel economy and the electric range thus during the period at which the power demand is less, we will allow the ESS to get charged and they will get discharged during the period of high-power demand. ESS acts as the catalysts as they help in boosting the energy requirements. In HEVs, maintaining high energy density is a necessity while demanding higher peak power as well thus this results in doubling the incremental cost of the vehicle if approx. 15 % of all electric range is demanded. The SOC of the vehicle directly affects the economy and the emission rates.
