Name one "oil" fired power plant?
Coal yes, nat gas sure, hyrdo (which is where alot of MI power comes from) you bet yea but I have not seen a oil powered electric plant.
further even is such a thing does exist, generating electricity has a much high efficiency then the IC engine which is by for one of the least efficient systems there is
