Some technologies need additional research to become commercially viable, including waste heat recovery devices, electromechanical valve actuation, low-friction lubricants and some lightweight materials. Lower costs are ultimately passed on to consumers and reduce the overall cost of achieving energy security and climate change goals.

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop. The electrical system has perhaps 85% excess capacity most of the year which means we are wasting money in excess electric generation and distribution infrastructure and resources.
