Hydroprocessing produces renewable diesel, and can produce 50-70% jet fuel with an additional cracking step. The remaining product would be mostly renewable diesel, with. The example used is Honeywell/UOP’s Renewable Jet Process.

Geothermal is particularly attractive since it’s a “forever&# renewable power source much like wind and solar - but without the intermittency of those clean energy sources. Clean base load energy is particularly important since that is usually generated by nukes, burning coal or, in the case of Hawaii, oil.

The cost to the manufacturer of producing the first generation of the PHEV-10 (2010–2012) is expected to be about $6,300 more than that of the equivalent conventional mid-size car (non-hybrid), including $3,300 for the battery pack. At this point, however, it is not clear what sorts of breakthroughs might become commercially viable.
