A method for determining the basic energy characteristics of a hybrid car engine is presented. The technique takes into account parameters of the vehicle and parameters of the driving mode during operation. The basis of the technique is traction power and energy calculation. According to the source data, the flow of energy passing through mechanical, electrical chains and through the storage of electrical energy is determined. The technique is implemented in the form of algorithms for the calculation program and allows one to simultaneously receive the main technical characteristics of the vehicle when it is equipped with a hybrid engine of a sequential, parallel and mixed type. The presented method allows one to obtain the following values: the required power of the internal combustion engine, the required power of the motor generator, the minimum capacity of the electrical energy storage device, the estimated fuel consumption. This article presents an example of calculating the basic parameters of a combined power plant for a car weighing 1500 kg when driving it along the standard European driving test cycle. Similar calculations can also be carried out for any other cycle and parameters of the vehicle, including the bus, truck, and tractor.

Many countries around the world are considering the possibility of a complete transition to electric cars. This raises questions about the capabilities of the existing infrastructure for electricity generation. This paper presents calculations on the example of the Russian power system. It is conventionally accepted that all cars with petrol engine will be run on electricity. To understand how much electricity consumption will change, a calculation technique has been proposed. As initial data, statistics on the production of electricity, petrol and diesel fuel over the past 20 years was used. As methodological approaches, a generalization and calculation were carried out, on the basis of which a theoretical experiment was conducted. The authors concluded that the increase in electricity consumption will be only 5%, which will not create an excessive load on the existing energy infrastructure.
