IEA report calls for no investment in new fossil fuel supply and end to sales of ICE cars by 2035

Green Car Congress

The world has a viable pathway to building a global energy sector with net-zero emissions in 2050, but it is narrow and requires an unprecedented transformation of how energy is produced, transported and used globally, according to a new special report from the International Energy Agency (IEA). Most of the remainder comes from nuclear power.

Specifically, low cost and energy-efficient processes are sought that can be demonstrated and validated under field conditions to meet needs of the nascent algal biomass industry. High-temperature, high-strength, lower-cost permanent magnets (PMs) are needed for traction motors for HEVs and PHEVs. saline water).

Worse still is that the losses in a magnetic material tend to increase at an exponential rate with frequency and flux swing (typically to the 1.5-2.5 from high dV/dt), hence the growing use of ceramics for the bearing balls and races.

He was formerly with the University of Wisconsin and Rockwell International, and holds a Ph.D. The potential is enormous because the current grid has sufficient energy capacity to supply every vehicle in the United States if every one of them was a PHEV. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish.
