Why do you want to increase the battery SOC? Typically most newer hybrids have a SOC goal they try to keep the battery charge at. For example, the Gen 2 Prius keeps the battery at around a 62% charge - any more and it uses the battery more, and any less it charges more. This is to help maximize the life of the battery and prevent early failures like were common on those early Honda hybrids we're both familiar with.
