Comment | Plug in hybrid technology currently represents the best method for the transportation industry to reduce oil consumption, CO2 emissions, and transition to a renewable energy society. Coupled with photovoltaic solar energy, it can drastically reduce energy costs. PV energy will soon be providing power at less than $0.05 kwh, with essentially unlimited lifetime and near zero maintenance. It is imperative to encourage the plug-in hybrid market to stimulate both US jobs and achieve US energy independence. We appreciate the desire to ensure safety in the implementation of these systems, but unnecessarily restrictive requirements are unwarranted at this time. I strongly urge the commision to take to heart CalCars Felix kramer and Ron Grembam's recommendations on this matter, and to support the growing US industry in plug-in hybrid technology. |
