The New Big Three?

04/14/2005 5:00 AM

California, Florida, and New York plan to counter soaring gas prices and reduce air pollution by becoming leaders in the effort to build affordable hydrogen-powered cars. But according to George Sverdrup, the technology manager for the federal National Renewable Energy Laboratory, hydrogen cars won't be affordable or practical for at least 15 years. Is Mr. Sverdrup's estimate accurate, or just plain pessimistic?

National Energy "Policy"

04/14/2005 1:18 PM

Today's news from Washington would seem to indicate that there is a lack of political will when it comes to supporting altenative sources of energy.

"The bill is still tilted heavily toward helping traditional energy industries including coal, oil and natural gas companies with little to encourage energy efficiency. Less than $500 million in tax incentives are directed at renewable energy and efficiency programs. It does not address improvements in automobile fuel economy."
