It offers the solution to several significant transitions we need: moving society from burning fossil fuels to substituting renewable resource fuels such as solar, wind and biofuels; and from using fossil materials as fuel to using them for other recyclable uses. Distributed Solar and Wind with the PHEV. It is much more than that.

One day soon, a platform 50 times as large may float in the deep waters of the North Sea, buoying up a massive wind turbine to harvest the steady, strong breezes there. About an hour’s ride up the coast, full-scale 3,000-tonne behemoths already float in Aberdeen Bay, capturing enough wind energy to electrify nearly 35,000 Scottish households.

The agency has now set up a feature on its website, “ Fostering Applicant Connections ” to try to connect its “Encouraged Applicants” that were not selected for an award and potential investors, partners and customers. However, ARPA-E can only fund a fraction of these promising ideas at the levels required.

The accelerating buildout of solar farms on Earth is already hitting speed bumps, including public pushback against the large tracts of land required and a ballooning backlog of requests for new transmission lines and grid connections.

Now where to get that pesky hydrogen. That being said, even a car that derives its energy from coal power plants would be far more clean.

But its monumentally less pollution , even on the national (half-coal) grid. Many continue to pay more attention to far-off hydrogen fuel cells than to this immediate solution. Fuel cell cars should be plug-in hybrids so that the fuel cell is used only for extended range, and the fuel cell stack and hydrogen storage can be smaller.

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). This opinion piece is from an independent writer and is not connected with Greentech Media News. Electric engines are emissions free (and quiet).

Volt like hybrids are the intermediate future between hydrogen or fast charging electric cars. If our country is going to spend money like a drunk sailor we should have spent it on building renewable energy power plants like Wind and Geothermal. So I think its a safe bet for GM. assuming electric cars actually have a future.
