The dual-fuel vehicle is a standard Optare Solo single-deck diesel midibus from the Anglian Bus fleet. The vehicle can still run on diesel, providing flexibility, but most of the time is running on biomethane gas which is a much cleaner and less polluting fuel. Dual-fuel use is a very attractive option. A hat-tip to John!).

Nissan estimates—based on the findings of AR4—that the CO 2 emissions of all new vehicles in 2050 would need to be reduced by 90% compared to the 2000 level. Based on this scenario, Nissan will conduct a review of its road map for CO 2 emissions reduction of new vehicles and reflect it in the next mid-term environmental action plan.

The freed-up 240V space in the breaker box is perfect timing for those people replacing their pollution-spewing oil/gas heaters with heat pumps/geothermal or adding an electric vehicle outlet or two in their garage. In fact, upgrading service/breaker boxes cost can often be less than the whole $2000-$2500 price of the washer/dryer upgrade!

We need a way of producing alternative cleaner fuels, minimizing use of hydrocarbons, or at a minimum recycling the carbon dioxide to form these more useful fuels. We can use it in vehicles, we can use it in aircraft, and so forth. —Harry Tuller.

The combustion air from the air cleaner first flows through the low-pressure compressor, where it is compressed as a function of the LP turbine's operating energy input. 310 Nm @2000-4300 rpm. In this instance too, the system operates on-demand, adjusting itself in line with the current steering speed and vehicle speed.

Had national and economic security trumped the power of oil and auto companies, a large percentage of cars would run today on cleaner, cheaper, domestic natural gas. Pickens’ plan includes lots of wind-generated electricity, ostensibly to replace the natural gas he would divert to vehicles. But we find ourselves in 2008.

The United States must reduce its global warming pollution emissions at least 80 percent below 2000 levels by 2050 to avoid some of the worst effects of global warming. It can be used to help industry make adjustments to adopt cleaner production processes or to support private efforts to invent new technologies that involve lower emissions.
