I learned about this only 10 years ago and then it was to late already, but had they started to convert to Flex-Fuel Vehicle in the 90s it would have meant much cheaper fuel in the 2000s (because natural gas to methanol is cheap and gas was cheap). Plus you could easily replace it with solar produced methanol overtime. EV however killed the need for that for the most part. Today I don't really think synfuels have much of a application. Batteries and storing energy electrically will win. It will not be so long until you can basically do Iron-Silicon battery for a very cheap price. Or if we finally figure Sulfer we could have amazing batteries for super cheap.
