Hydrogen Powered Engines

Natural Gas

Hybrids

Alternative Fuels

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)

Reduces dependence on foreign oil

•Provides performance similar to gasoline or diesel

•Burns cleaner than gasoline or diesel

Infrastructure not widespread

•Fast-fill stations are expensive to build and face regulatory hurdles

•Time-fill stations are useful for fleets

•Home fueling not yet practical

Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG)

Reduces dependence on foreign oil

•Provides performance similar to gasoline or diesel

•Burns cleaner than gasoline or diesel

•Turns waste into fuel

Infrastructure not vehicle-oriented

•Exists for other uses

•Some concern with cold-weather performance

Ethanol

Locally sourced

•Easily distributed through existing channels

•Burns cleaner than gasoline or diesel

Sourcing is controversial

•Using food crops raises concern

•Well to Wheels environmental impact

•Even when it’s available, customers choose gasoline

Biodiesel

Waste to fuel

•Easily distributed through existing channels

•Provides excellent energy density

Quality is not standardized

•Purity of any diesel fuel is critical

•Many types of biodiesel are possible

•Cold weather performance suspect
