Book excerpt: "A Series PHEV was chosen as ERAU's entry into EcoCar2 through a multidisciplinary architecture selection process. The first controller implemented was a simplified bang-bang controller to operate at the global minimum BSFC. A power-tracking controller was then developed to minimize powertrain losses. The power-tracking controller substantially reduced the vehicles energy consumption on simulated EPA drive cycles."--Leaf 3.
