The second round was focused specifically on three areas of technology representing new approaches for advanced microbial biofuels (electrofuels); much higher capacity and less expensive batteries for electric vehicles; and carbon capture. More than 540 initial concept papers were received in the three focus areas. Electrofuels.

13, 2006 Andrew Frank, University of California at Davis Mechanical engineering professor and researcher Andrew Frank has spent much of the last 30 years studying electric motors and batteries to make vehicles more fuel-efficient. Because of this, they can get up to 100 miles per gallon of gasoline. So I’ve been promoting this.

and UC-Davis Emeritus and Catherine JJ DeMauro. The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. (In At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid.

The second-generation “Voltec” extended range electric powertrain applied in the MY2016 Chevy Volt ( earlier post ) marks a significant evolution in the electric drive technology platform from its first-generation origins. For the second-generation, GM wanted to enhance the electric performance of the Volt. Improved performance.
