General Motors promoted their Fuel Cell technology under the Chevrolet division with the “Chevy Equinox” car on the Smithsonian magazine in September 2008‚ when posting an advertisement that presented their newest technology for environment friendly cars‚ the Equinox fuel cell. The magazine is a lifestyle magazine that is designated to people who love to read about nature‚ culture‚ science‚ and travel

ADOPTION OF ELECTRICALLY POWERED VEHICLES IN THE US INTRODUCTION U.S. consumer interest in non-fossil fuel vehicles is relatively positive. There are several issues that American faced about fossil fuel such as pollution‚ dependency on oil imports‚ concerns of how long fossil fuel supply will be worn-out and especially fluctuation of foreign-oil prices and the more expensive cost of fuel for American household. Some actions have been taken both by the policy maker such as formed an air pollution

Premium Fuel injection
meaning‚ direct injection of the fuel into the cylinders of a diesel engine via a single‚ common line‚ called the common rail which is connected to all the fuel injectors. Whereas ordinary diesel direct fuel-injection systems have to build up pressure anew for each and every injection cycle‚ the new common rail (line) engines maintain constant pressure regardless of the injection sequence. This pressure then remains permanently available throughout the fuel line. The engine’s electronic

Energy Fossil Fuels Good Bad and Ugly Abstract Energy is an important part of our everyday lives. Energy can come in many different types‚ and forms it can be used for many different purposes. Energy has many different usages and can be converted from one form of usage to another form of usage depending on what the need is. One form of energy conversion is the use of food to supply people ’s bodies with energy. Another form of energy

sparks against dry tinder or fleece. But now there are many alternative sources of energy for people to use. And fossils fuels helped them a lot. People have used more than 90% of fuels‚ such as oil‚ coal and natural gas to produce electricity. These things are non-renewable. The more we use these fuels it will decrease every day. Today fossils fuels are a risk for our planet and people should search alternative way of energy‚ which is a new way to produce electricity

which is made from fossil fuels. Fossil fuels such as oil‚ coal‚ and natural gas are nonrenewable resources. They will run out one day and that’s what the U.S. relies on for gas and electricity. Renewable energy such as solar‚ wind‚ and hydropower are infinite sources. The U.S. depends on the finite resources of fossil fuels greatly‚ yet they have the ability to use renewable energy. The oil boom dates back to Henry Ford and John D. Rockefeller and some say that fossil fuels have reached the end of
