Geely supporting Danish initiative on e-methanol with vehicle trials in Aalborg

Green Car Congress

While the country is one of the world’s largest producers of wind and solar renewable energy, it faces the issue of renewable energy being weather-dependent and prone to fluctuation. The uses of green methanol for commercial shipping have already been pioneered by Danish shipping giant Maersk.

Plug-In Hybrids (or Plugin Hybrids)

Tony Karrer Delicious EVdriven

Scientist have confirmed that unlike gasoline cars, plug-ins will get cleaner as they get older -- because our power grid is getting cleaner. California Air Resources Board studies show that battery electric vehicles emit at least 67% lower greenhouse gases than gasoline cars -- even more assuming renewables.
