DOE Report: Lithium-ion Batteries Are Not Ready for Prime Time [View article]
Excellent points Renzo. For those who do believe that 1) there is a problem with supply of cheap fossil fuels, and 2) there is a serious possibility that global warming linked to human fossil fuel use will become an increasingly apparent reality- it would be hard to be opposed to nuclear energy as a strong component of domestic energy supply. For the possibilities, check out hyperion www.hyperionpowergener.../ On the other hand, my wife and I have 2 cars, and we would like to replace our "commuter" car in the next couple years. A plug-in hybrid NG car with a 10-yr life battery pack and a 40 mile all electric range would definately fit the bill. We'll keep our SUV for hauling big stuff and bad weather.
