Qiang Dai and Christian Lastoskie found that BEVs and FCVs in particular offer significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, especially if carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) technologies are implemented at the fuel conversion facilities. The FCV has an overall energy conversion efficiency about 30%. —Dai and Lastoskie.

Recharging takes approximately 6 minutes at end stations. Hamburg, Luxembourg and Stockholm will implement the new bus system in 2014 and 2015. The noise level beside an Electric Hybrid is 65 decibels, that is to say normal conversation level. The bus is rapid-charged at select bus stops via a pantograph. Earlier post.).

From the second half of 2010 through to mid-2014, trial will become active, with electric vehicles operating and data collection underway. These standards would ideally be developed in the same manner as previously undertaken in respect of LPG conversions in Australia and would largely take account of the quality of the installation.

Conversely, those of HEVs are in line with plans. In October, strategy consultancy Roland Berger updated its 2010 report on the Li-ion battery business in which it warned that only six to eight global players in rechargeable battery business would survive through to 2017.

In a typical non-aqueous rechargeable Li–O 2 battery, lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2 ) is the discharging product formed on the oxygen electrode surface and is oxidized back to O 2 and Li + in a following charging process. They invented a high-efficiency air-powered battery that discharges by chemically reacting potassium with oxygen.
