Alternative Energy Transportation :
Not Just the 'Alternative' Anymore!

Each day, we advance further and further with technologies that'll let us quit using 'primitive' petroleum-powered vehicles (like we currently use).

Today, we use fossil fuel to power most of our vehicles - cars, trucks, planes, boats, trains. But other types of vehicles are available for you to start using, with more options on the way.

Some of these other methods don't even require the use of fossil fuels (or they help us to reduce the amount of fossil fuel we use on a daily basis).

Some of these technologies are in their infancy and are really just now getting started. Others are on the cutting-edge horizon of the future and show promise of being around for a long time.

All of them are gaining the world’s interest and if for some reason you're unable to find and use them right now, you soon will be!

We hope you'll find these as exciting and enticing as we do!

What's Available Now?

Newer technologies, better ways of making them, and rising fuel prices have all made alternative energy transportation a system that we all need and want.

These new technologies look very promising!

Here are the technologies at the forefront of advancement:

	Electric Cars may be the future mode of travel for all of us soon! Many of us have seen them depicted for years in movies and books, but now electric cars may no longer be just a dream. Also, check out locations where electric car conversions can be done on your old gas-guzzler to convert it from a gasoline vehicle to a beautifully quiet, efficient all-electric.
	Hybrid Vehicles could be the revolutionary way for us to make the tough transition from petroleum to electric. Check out our page on hybrid vehicles showing you what's currently available and what's "in the works" for the future of hybrid vehicles.
	Hydrogen Fuel Cell - Could the fuel cell be the answer to running your vehicles on liquid hydrogen or possibly even water? Learn more about fuel cell cars and how this technology can become the alternative energy transportation method of tomorrow.

Have you ever thought about just running a car on AIR? Well, here's something that you absolutely MUST see! These guys from a company known as MDI in Europe may well have tapped into a technology that will revolutionize our future:

Why do we continue using petroleum?

If you’re curious about how we arrived at this point in history still using fossil fuels for our primary source of energy, you may want to check out our history of transportation page for a better understanding of why we human beings are the way we are (and why we won't, or haven't, easily give up gasoline or coal).
