Gasoline has no hope.
- dredmorbius 11y agoNot entirely true. Synfuels, including direct analogs of petrol and diesel, can be created from electricity and seawater. The fuel is carbon neutral, though somewhat more expensive than present fuels. US Naval Research Lab estimates are about $6/gallon. You retain energy density and storage stability of liquid hydrocarbons.
