Now, researchers at Imperial College London have shown that bioethanol production from bamboo in China is both technically and economically feasible, as well as cost-competitive with gasoline. In its development of biofuel policy, China’s 10 th five-year plan (2001–2005) proposed a biofuel industry to utilize surplus grain stocks.

The University of Michigan and Shanghai Jiao Tong University are awarding a joint research team $200,000 to support a project investigating high-capacity Li-air batteries for electric vehicle applications. The reductions would be accomplished through the synergy of optimized low-carbon energy carriers, including biofuels and electricity.

We’ve since ratcheted down the electric use here at my home and in my office and studio watt by watt until we hit our new all time low just last month as we used just 357 kWh which cost us $46.24. Our daily use of electricity during this two year period has gone from 22.55 And two years ago we used 654 kWh which cost us $117.89.
