Oil No, Innovation Yes | Green Energy News: "What’s really needed, anyway, more than new oil, is more energy innovation. Breakthrough ideas pop to the surface often enough, but they are disruptive to the entrenched fossil energy industry, thus are not welcomed with open arms.
Electrically-driven cars, as disruptive as they are to big oil, are on their way nonetheless and to some extent will actually help another one of the entrenched energy industries – coal – at least for a time. Most of the US grid is powered by coal, thus cars plugged into it will be coal powered. However, many buyers of plug-in vehicles will certainly have another idea on their minds: the possibility that their electric cars, trucks or SUVs can be charged with home-brewed renewable electricity."
