Energy Independence

Starting in June of 2008, I have relaunched z-car.com as a forum to help inform car enthusiasts about our need for energy independence.  I am interested in what alternatives we have, and how we can express our concerns to our elected officials in the government.

How can we transition to a clean, renewable energy and transportation economy?

I would like to see:

  • Policy solutions to accelerate early deployment and market development for hydrogen and fuel cell, biodiesel, and biomass-to-energy technologies
  • Research and advocacy in support of renewable hydrogen and renewable diesel, particularly from waste biomass
  • Opportunities to demonstrate and deploy hydrogen and fuel cell vehicles in tandem with hydrogen fueling infrastructure
  • Development of a standard for pure biodiesel for use as a fuel
  • Options for policy directives to convert agricultural waste into energy in a cost-effective manner
  • Government agencies, businesses and other non-profit organizations understanding the needs, merits, and pathways to the renewable fuels economy
