Posted an MPGge Calculator Excel workbook in the Files section here:

Instructions:
  1. Go to: http://www.google.org/recharge/dashboard/calculator .
  2. From the drop down box on the right, select your state.
  3. Press Calculate.
  4. From the web page populate the top left 6 Tan boxes of the spreadsheet.
  5. The top left Yellow box now has the ratio of kWh to gallons of gas based on CO2 emissions for your states power infrastructure.
  6. In the bottom two tan boxes fill in the states for your favorite PHEV or EV vehicle. Zero is a valid MPG if it’s all EV. Zero is a valid Wh/Mi if it has no plug.
  7. The bottom Green box now has the emissions rating for that vehicle.
  8. The bottom right Yellow box has an equivocal MPG for that vehicle base on its emissions.
  9. This is called Miles per Gallon of Gasoline Equivalence or MPGge or Mi/Gge.
Basically it uses the conversion factors that Google is using at Google.org. I tend to trust this stuff and the numbers match what I've found for the most part.

With it, you plug in google's figures for your state (to get their conversion factors). Then you can figure out what the MPGge (Miles Per Gallon Gasoline Equivenlance) for an EV or PHEV if you know it's Wh/Mile rating and or MPG for that Gas assist.

Houston Hybrid & Hypermilers Club (aka H³C)

Basic discussions about hybrids and techniques to maximize fuel efficiency (both hybrid and non-hybrid).

Sat, Aug 11th @ Noon
Sonic Drive-In, Cypress Texas (Houston Cy-Fair)
26044 Highway 290 (Northwest Houston Metro Area)

There are some tables in the center of the sonic and I'll be hanging out with a tan baseball cap reading "CleanMPG.com".

Google Map

Agenda
-Prius Block Heater Install walk-through.
-EV Button Install walk-through.
-Hypermiling (Eco-Driving) tips and tricks.
-ScanGaugeII test runs and driving clinics.
-General Hybrid Q&A.

There are a few other fast food joints and one pizza place in the area if you want some other food.

I'll have my ScanGauge (fuel consumption display) so we can hook it up to your car to see real-time fuel usage. It works on most cars made after 1995. One thing that helps is knowing your engine size (displacement). This is usually represented in liters, cubic centimeters or cubic inches. An example would be a Prius 1.5L 4cyl.

Email or PM me and I'll pass along my cell number if you need it.
