Possible Routes Towards Carbon-Free Vehicles

Possible Routes Towards Carbon-Free Vehicles [Pg.1]

The relation between energy demand, population increase and continuous amelioration of economic conditions is strictly connected to some crucial issues regarding the human impact on the environment and the reserves of primary energy resources. These questions are the basis of the worldwide diffused awareness that concomitant growth of human population, economic prosperity and energy demand, may not be sustainable far into the future without any modification of the present model of economic and social development.
