Plug-In Hybrids to Remain Rare Despite Amazing Mileage, says ABI Research : new link — OYSTER BAY, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Aug. 30, 2005–Though it would probably void the warranty, owners have been known to modify their hybrid vehicles to run longer solely on electric power and to charge their batteries from electric mains (thus the name, “plug-in hybrid”). If they recharge frequently enough, it is possible to use the gasoline engine in the vehicle only rarely, literally allowing for hundred of miles per gallon. So why aren’t automakers offering this as a factory option? |

1 Megawatt Fuel Cell Power Plant From: peacefulloflove This is a video of a 1 megawatt Fuel Cell Power Plant at California State University, Northridge, in Los Angeles, CA. The power plant has a reformer that separates hydrogen from natural gas and then feeds the hydrogen into a fuel cell, generating electricity. The plant also recovers the heat generated and uses it for domestic heating on campus. In the future, some of the carbon emitted will be sequestered in a sub-tropical rainforest that is under construction. |

Solar Car
A solar car is a light weight, low power vehicle designed and built with a single purpose in mind – racing (or "raycing", a combination of "race" and "ray" from the sun). Similar to an Indy or Formula One race cars, solar cars do not represent a practical means of transportation. They have limited seating (usually one, sometimes two people), they have very little cargo capacity, and they can only be driven during the day. They do, however, offer an excellent opportunity to develop future technologies that can be applied to practical applications. |
