Yeah but we wouldn't do that. It doesn't make sense to pay the energy conversion costs; it is already more efficient to store power in non-oil batteries.

- Earw0rm 2y agoNot true for aviation, where weight and volume are both constraints.
- jvanderbot 2y agoFor me, scarcity arguments based on "preferences" don't make a ton of sense, but I see your point. I'd give even odds there will always be use cases for burnable fuels, and almost all vehicles use burnable fuels currently. Sure seems a shorter path to just pull CO2 out of the air and keep moving along as we always have, vs electrifying everything.
