the cost is less than that of the gasoline ICEV. For the future technology case, HEV, PHEV, and BEV platforms offer the lowest modeled costs of avoided GHG emissions, with many options having a negative cost—i.e.,

This framework includes electricity and natural gas used in the production of hydrogen. The study published in ES&T was funded by Chevron Energy Technology Company. Tighter sulfur specifications on gasoline and marine diesel fuel account for about 10%?20% and incidental energy losses due to flaring, fugitive emissions, etc.

Little would have been gained by attempting to expand the reach of gasoline to laptops or refrigerators, so we've long been subjected to a decades-long preemptive assault on electric cars. It takes a sustained effort to sow confusion about the obvious benefits of electric cars.

The second NABC insertion point (insertion point 3 on the diagram) is where the biomass is processed to a point where it is acceptable as a neat fuel or as a blendstock component to be blended with existing petroleum-based gasoline or diesel. Materials provided by Albemarle and PNNL were evaluated at 400, 250, and 50 psi hydrogen pressure.

California’s ZEV mandate put EVs into consumers’ hands, only to be eviscerated by automaker and oil lobbying, federal intervention, and CARB’s capitulation to well-funded hydrogen hype. Energy Secretary Chu’s decision to defund hydrogen fuel cell vehicle programs was an unexpected and welcome decision. GM waxed hot and cold on the EV1.

Major liquid fuel classes represented in the library include hydrogen; n-alkanes; iso-alkanes; 1-ring aromatics; 2-ring aromatics; cycloalkanes/naphthenes; olefins; oxygenated fuels; and soot precursors and emissions pathways. Gasoline components, including toluene, propylbenzene, ethyl benzene and xylene.

The electric grid is the most advanced energy-distribution network ever created and is constantly only a few feet away from us (far more ubiquitous than gas/ethanol/hydrogen stations). Without gasoline, today’s transportation fails. But without electricity, modern civilization fails.

It is reminiscent of the early 1900’s, when steam, electric, diesel, biomass, and gasoline power options competed on a level playing field for consumers’ attention. In the end, gasoline won out because it was the cheapest and delivered the most energy per unit, but it took 20 years to sort out. The bottleneck is infrastructure.
