This article presents a scenario to meet the future fuel needs of the US ground transportation system that does not require hydrogen, can use existing technology and eventually transition to ethanol from biomass. This scenario is based on a combination of reduction of liquid fuel use by means of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and generation of ethanol from biomass. The article also demonstrates the reduction in CO2 generation with this technology and the urgency of initiating a strategy for reducing gasoline consumption as soon as possible.
