The Complex Calculus of Clean Energy and Zero Emissions

Cars That Think

Jesse Jenkins, Princeton University When I entered the field, commercial wind was starting to scale up and the questions were about engineering feasibility. But there needs to be some infrastructure to support more commercial or public sector uses. Those technologies are starting to see their first commercial deployments.

and criteria pollutant (smog) emissions were estimated for the Zero-V based on a complete “well-to-waves” (WTW) analysis. According to Sandia chemist and project lead Lennie Klebanoff, it is impossible to have a polluting hydrogen spill on the water. To reduce weight, the vessel has to be constructed of aluminum. —Sandia report.
