In Iowa, for example, scientists are making a corn-based bioasphalt from residue left after the production of ethanol. With the waste cooking oil technology, we can reduce the cost of asphalt binder to under $200 per ton, making road building much cheaper. Only in the last decade has the green asphalt industry started coming together.

On the other hand, Chevron invested in Codexis and LS9 with its concentration on genetic engineering; LS9 was acquired by Renewable Energy Group in early 2014. Additionally, the focus on waste feedstock can be reflected by its investments in the ill-fated Terrabon, which was focused on wet waste-to-gasoline.

EV technology is constantly improving and EV manufacturers are bringing engineering ingenuity to making EVs perform even better in cold-weather. EVs also have a low center of gravity - since most of their weight is in the battery pack beneath the car rather than in a gas-powered engine in front of the car.
