Remember VHS or BetaMax? There need to be standards set by a body that represents the public. This is a 180 for me. Lets get the best minds from govt, business,scientific community etc and come up with a plan that involves short term and medium term as well as long term solutions and if that involves pumping alaska oil and going to 55mph at home for a couple of years, so be it. You don't have to do all that. Just reward gasoline efficiency and punish gasoline inefficiency; technology agnostic. Let government set the overall goal for the benefit of society and let private industry and consumers figure the best way to get there. It's simple... we've done it 1000 times with the tax code.
