ORNL and its partners will develop an integrated simulation environment, the Fusion Energy Reactor Models Integrator (FERMI), to assess and accelerate the design cycle of integrated fusion-energy systems. FERMI will substantially shorten the overall design cycle and reduce costs, while significantly improving accuracy.

IH 2 technology is a catalytic thermochemical process that promises to be a very cost-effective route to produce liquid transportation fuels from renewable resources. Pilot plant operation is a critical step along the IH 2 technology commercialization pathway, as it provides valuable information to confirm and refine commercial design.

Lifecycle GHG emissions of renewable gasoline from the IH 2 process (GTI RG) compared to petroleum gasoline and diesel. High-quality renewable gasoline and diesel products are produced. GTI says that renewable gasoline (RG) produced by the IH 2 process results in more than 90% lower greenhouse gas emissions than petroleum-based fuels.

Spirit of DC - PHEV3A

FEBRUARY 7, 2009

The plug-in hybrid vehicle the “Spirit of DC" was designed to run on electricity alone for about 10 miles before reverting back to acting like an ordinary hybrid. Now the "Spirit" is busy promoting plug-ins at America’s schools. On this leg of the trip we on the PHEV3A team have been focusing on stopping at schools.

It is also flex so that future biomass fuels such as cellulosic ethanol, methanol can be used (no oil). Also maintenance on these (no oil changes to speak of) etc will cost much less than an internal combution propelled car. Those cars will reduce oil demand at most by about 1/5th of one percent. — Volt Enthusiast 7.
