Or just burn the fuel directly in a CHP plant and don't do it in an inefficient system using an engine and a very complicated indirect mechanical coupling via the roadbed. Doubly so for electric cars. Imagine the losses in generating power, distributing it, charging a battery, running a motor, moving road or air, catching a few fractions in a turbine, generating electricity again and then transmitting that. All these schemes are a cross between a Homer Simpson plan, Wile E. Coyote, Rube Goldberg and Troll Physics memes, angling for some greenwashing overspray capital(....)
