Heavy fuel oil (HFO) is the predominant marine fuel. While the IMO is taking positive action to address the environmental impacts of air pollution from ships, the rapid change creates significant disruption for both the refining and shipping industries. It is viscous, dirty, inexpensive and widely available. —Kurt Barrow.

The vehicles use electricity produced from nuclear power, coal, natural gas or solar energy. An electric car does not require a regular oil changes or tune-ups. Hence, your vehicle does not produce greenhouse gases or pollutants that destroy the atmosphere when you’re driving. High Torque. Low Maintenance Costs.

Jenkins: Energy systems became globalized in the middle of the 20th century and then encountered global supply shocks, like the oil embargoes of the ’70s. The second reason is that the grid we have is built out to places where there were coal mines and hydropower dams, not where there’s the best wind and sun.
