Coal supplies nearly 50% of domestic electricity. In order for low-cost electricity from coal-fired power plants to remain available, the DOE said, economical methods for capturing and storing the greenhouse gas emissions from these plants must be developed.

We have diversified sources to meet many of our energy needs (for example, coal, nuclear power, hydroelectric and biomass). Increasingly, American consumers are looking to hybrid vehicles to reduce their transportation operating costs. And, on the other, we are paying vast sums to protect ourselves against such terror.

The vision is fuelled by the fear of climate change and the need to find green alternatives to dirty coal, unpopular nuclear power and unreliable gas imports from Russia. The hybridization of express and local routing that they represent could potentially serve even our most sprawling cities better than a fleet of electric cars.

That being said, even a car that derives its energy from coal power plants would be far more clean. Having centralized energy production in that way allows for centralized pollution control measures, filters, so-called "clean coal" rather than depending on X number of cars, manufacturers, and consumers to deal with pollution control.

How Real, How Soon, and What Must Happen Next,” which concludes the costs of creating an automotive market dominated by electric and hybrid cars are prohibitively high for the foreseeable future – as high as $49 billion for Europe alone (along with another $21 billion for battery-charging infrastructure). The group pointed to a B.C.G.
