ETHANOL VS. PHEV

摘要

Which goes farther, an SUV fueled by ethanol or an SUV powered by electricity generated from the same acre of biomass?rnSeems the electric vehicle wins, at least according to research published in the online edition of Science. Research showed a small SUV powered by bioelectricity could travel nearly 14,000 highway miles on the net energy produced from an acre of switchgrass. A comparable internal combustion vehicle could travel about 9,000 miles.
