More renewable energy sources are being added to the UK grid all the time and it takes less energy to produce renewable electricity (and it’s a much cleaner process) than extracting and cracking crude oil to make petrol, while most new electric cars are packed with clever technology which makes then even more environmentally friendly.

It’s January 2030 and your electric heat pump is warming the house while your electric car charges in the garage, all powered by solar panels on your roof and by wind and solar generators at your local utility. Compared with oil-lubricated bearings, air bearings have lower friction and simpler seals.

Within the next 10 to 20 years, we will not only reach peak oil we will enter a period where demand for all liquid fuels will exceed supply. A century after the invention of the automobile, we must re-invent it with powertrains that significantly reduce or eliminate the use of conventional petroleum fuels. And then there is range.

Opel engineers focused on getting an optimal balance between all the requirements for power, fuel economy, refinement (low noise, vibration and harshness), emissions, weight and affordability—priorities which can often conflict. This enables high power, improved fuel atomization and efficient mixing with the air intake charge.

The grid today could handle many millions of EVs charging late at night when rates are lowest. By 2012, we should have made some progress on this, just in time to re-elect Obama to his second term. This would allow utilities to stagger when electric cars are charging, or charge up power all at once if generation is high.

There is a quick charge station, which does end of the line rejection. The air filtration unit also cools the air to 22 degree C before it is re-circulated in the painting area.

You’ve got to show you’re going to show that you’re going to build something that’s going to look good – not from the aesthetic point of view, from the building point of view. Yeah, they can afford it. And I wasn’t interested in selling solar based on, “Hey it prevents oil,” you know. They’re my heroes.

Government will have a huge role to play here.Globally, governments and auto manufacturers are investing heavily in EV charging infrastructure, and hopefully this will be the same in India. However, we are a price-sensitive market, and hence making technology affordable is a key consideration for the industry.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. GM killed that car because of back room deals with oil companies, and now they expect us to believe that they are just so cutting edge now? Thats right.
