Here's a perfect example of why Kunstler thinks energy conservation is a joke.(PDF) Several points to touch on but the overall goal is refining a vehicle, which in comparison to all other vehicles, make up a tiny percentage of the vehicles on the road. After that, the award ceiling is laughable.
"This project will investigate methods of improving the fuel economy of
highway vehicles." If this is true, maybe I'm just missing the other grant opportunities for improving the drivetrains of conventional vehicles. I hope so.
