The US Air Force is demonstrating the use of hydrogen as an alternate fuel source at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii. This state organization supports the Hawaii ANG, the National Guard Bureau, and the US Air Force. This is due to the need for a consistent supply of power to meet electrical load demands.

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.

Revenge of the Electric Car

JANUARY 15, 2010

Like Portland, like Paris, like Tel Aviv, like Tokyo, like Los Angeles, like Copenhagen, like Hawaii! And entrepreneurs were in ample supply too. With a $40,000 tax on gas cars, and an exemption for electric vehicles, no wonder that some of northern Denmark’s wind farmers are driving Teslas in the field. Vegas anyone?

So far Israel, Denmark, Australia , Hawaii and California’s Bay Area have plans to implement the Better Place model. Electric cars in the garages would double as battery packs for when energy supplies are scarce. Wind, solar and nuclear could easily change our electrical sources. The elegance of that is wonderful. The best part?

Better Place is building stations in San Francisco, Hawaii, Israel, and Denmark to swap out 1,000 pound batteries in a car wash type set up. Several global indicators on the supply of oil and the known carbon pollution environmental damages its caused all lead us to find cleaner ways of transportation.
