To take your analysis further, $0.71 per gallon of gasoline comes out to $0.02 per kWh... even with 100% markup, $0.04/kWh is very cheap energy. You're right, it sounds too good to be true.
- Retric 16y agoPower plants are only 40% efficient at best and cars are lucky to be 20% so it's really about the same cost as an electric car. PS: Not that I think it's accurate; 16% efficiency is not bad for a solar cell, suggesting you can get a bio fuel plant close to that is a hard sell IMO.
