Ted, > If over the next ten years cars eventually go to hybrid and then electric

We are not driving golf carts, so you can count out 100% electric.


If ZENN knows what its talking about, 100% electric will mean more than just golf carts:

Hydrogen is a possibility, but to produce it and have it completely replace gas for vehicles means we need to greatly increase our electric power capacity. That's not going to happen with solar and wind. We still need to burn fossil fuels until nuclear and fusion become mainstream.

NG for all fleet vehicles is a possibility. Of course, NG is a fossil fuel but its 'home grown' and burns relatively cleanly.
