    This is a link to the new 2011 Mercedes Benz F-Cell; it is a vehicle that runs completely on hydrogen, an energy source that will become more commonly used in the future.

    Even though this website is from 2008, I think this fuel source is very creative. A company called Frybrid created a system to convert vegetable oil into fuel for diesel-powered automobiles.

    The all new Honda Civic GX is the first car ever to run off of natural gas. It is a small four cylinder 113 HP car, but it is a breakthrough in alternative duel source cars. With this 2011 model car, expect many more car companies to come out with natural gas powered cars.

    This is a site that says Nikkei, a Japanese company, is going to use old scrap cars to make fuel. Kind of ironic.

    Waste Gastification is a process that turns waste into a fuel source. First the waste is seperated from any metals. Then the waste is placed into a chamber where it is heated to 700 C. This creates a mixture of different gases. These gases are again heated but this time they are heated by a plasma torch at 1200 C. The torch seperates the gases into simple gases like carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and mercury. After the mercury and steam are removed from the chambers the simple gases are moved to a combustion engine generator to create energy.

    I keep on seeing adds on tv for Toyota's new innovations, one is its regenerative braking systems where it uses the energy used from the brakes to charge a battery. I can't find the actually adds but here is some data on it:

    This sight shows cars, trains, and motorcycles that run on hydrogen and oxygen. They all look and sound really cool. Personally, I think that the first and fourth picture/caption look/sound the coolest.
