"With the need to replace an old 6 MW diesel engine operating on HFO, the company decided to go for a Wärtsilä dual-fuel engine 32 DF, with an output of 6 MW, that would run on 99% natural gas and 1% light fuel oil."

Why? Just because you say so? The free market prices around the world for actually doing it, particularly for key items like that battery, say you're wrong. Either all the same manufacturers that are churning out other cars at competitive prices are in on some grand conspiracy, or, as usual, you're just talking about things you don't understand.
Oh, yeah, and regenerative braking, of course. WhichFirst you made an ass of yourself with your dumb assertions about the cost per mile to charge an electric car versus gas. Crap you just made up, instead of taking 5 mins to find out the facts, which are widely available for many sources that HAVE ACTUALLY TESTED THE CARS. Now you've switched to this nonsense. You have no expertise in battery technology, cost, or apparently much of anything else.
The world has changed since then. The 1974 beetle would not meet federal crash resistant bumper standards, air bag standards, etc. As have customer expectations for what they want in a car today.
147384965.htmlI suspect at some point you didn't wear a helmet. It's one explanation of why you keep making a complete ass of yourself. You see anyone here agreeing with you?
-That was a 19th century British invention. Long before Doble.

It's a freakin windmill that the ancient Greeks had. The modern idea was French:
Duhh!
NO! You said it's too heavy, has unnecessary computers and airbags, takes too long to charge, doesn't get good enough mileage for you, the electricity to power it costs you too much, it can't carry lathes or cement pallets, lacks hub motors.... f*ck what's the point of going on? It probably comes in the wrong colors.
I KNOW! They should sell it at an even bigger loss, so that you can write that it's still too much and should be free unless it's delivered in 30 minutes.
Hell yeah! The cars, the car companies, society, the government, the healthcare system, the education system, the highway safety infrastructure, the energy industry (sorry if I missed any rants there) ALL need to be redesigned by a crackpot. Once we rip the overweight transaxle out of our '74 Beetles, and replace it with a long range battery and an electric motor to create the ultimate 2000 lb car, we can rule the world! Heil Angst!
Aha! And there we have it. You'll buy an EV if somebody pays it down to the level of a Cruze. Except... no you won't!
Black is the only dignified color for a car. All other colors are for housewives and Homeyz....
And of course you are a lying sack of s*it.
Yup. But of course, you missed the much bigger point.
And YOU..... are calling ME...... a crackpot?? Holy s*it.....
If the Honder Fit goes kaput, my next car proly won't be a Volt, much as I'd like, it'll proly be a Pruis c. Or, if I can sleuth out more about those 136 mpg Insights, I'd finagle one of those.
But, Kidding, no kidding, yer good, you can twist ANYTHING into non-recognition, and you can do it with some amount of style. Props to you....
I'd keep an eye on the wife tho, cuz I have an idea your style wears thin after a while -- esp with all the disingenuous twisting, conniving, and, well, just plain ole lying. Keep on eye on your landscaper, as well.
Celebrated our 30th anniversary about a week ago. Lived in sin for some years prior to wedding. I rank your warnings right up there with the cull because they're based on the exact same thing - retarded wishful thinking.
And you want to ship a free kitten, with every large order. :)
Absolutely irrelevant.
Absolutely irrelevant (and nonsense).
"fred"? Not only are you stupid but you're illiterate.
You're an idiot but please call anytime.
It's really a shame you *never* know what you're talking about. You must be a lefty.
Of course not. That's the entire reason harry was born.
The "complications" are necessary to get even the range from them we have now. The AC motor/generator is over 90% efficient (they claim) which is some achievement, ========================================================
fyi, Baldor (et al) has been making 98%+ efficient motors for years.

My electric car uses around 0.2Kwh per mile depending on terrain. So you can work out the cost depending on your local electricity price.
The subject was steam turbines. Which were invented in the UK. Nor water wheels/turbines.
Especially after the ingrates burned down our White House. I still haven't forgiven them for that.
As Big Daddy Roth used to say, "if you have a really good body, paint it black. Otherwise, paint it something else." Or George Barris: "If in doubt, paint it black"
Hawaii was invaded and has been colonised by USAians. It was illegally incorporated into the USA. The real Hawaiians want it back.
In fact they wanted to join the British Empire. Here is the proof.
You're pretty ignorant about your own country. Or do you prefer to ignore the realities?

Parsons was AN inventor of them, but not the only one:
Shocking ... LOL
Yeah, I saw that and I was impressed. It reminded me of my own attempt around ten years ago. I turned some mallets on my lathe and sanded a hollow in a maple stump. Then I proceeded to destroy pieces of 3003 aluminum. They were so bad, I didn't even think the recycler would take them.
Better luck to you. It's good therapy, I hear. (FWIW, I think I was waiting too long to shrink out the scallops. By the time I got to them, they wanted to fold over rather than shrink out.)
Nah...California is actually pretty nice in most places. Except the Leftwingers run it. The Central Valley is a very nice Red Zone. Hell...most of the state votes Red (conservative) except for 3-4 of the urban areas
Now California..has been explored and settled long before most of the eastern states. Hell..the Chinese used to come over and trade with the indians back nearly in the BC times.
The first white explorer to visit Michigan was the Frenchman Étienne Brûlé in 1620, who began his expedition from Quebec City on the orders of Samuel de Champlain and traveled as far as the Upper Peninsula. Afterward, the area became part of Louisiana, one of the large colonial provinces of New France. The first permanent European settlement in Michigan was founded in 1668 at Sault Ste. Marie by Jacques Marquette, a French missionary."
The ability of the early voyagers to use the Great Lakes and the discovery of copper and of course the massive amounts of harvestable trees sped up the influx of Europeans dramatically.
And then we have the Runestones...some of which may or may not be hoaxes.
However, there is no evidence that the Knutson expedition ever set sail (the government of Norway went through considerable turmoil in
1355) and the information from Cnoyen as relayed by Mercator states specifically that the eight men who came to Norway in 1364 were not survivors of a recent expedition, but descended from the colonists who had settled the distant lands, generations earlier.[22] Also, those early 19th century books, which aroused a great deal of interest among Scandinavian Americans would have been available to a late 19th century hoaxer.Hjalmar Holand had proposed that interbreeding with Norse survivors might explain the "blond" Indians among the Mandan on the Upper Missouri River,[25] but in a multidisciplinary study of the stone, anthropologist Alice Beck Kehoe dismissed, as "tangential" to the Runestone issue, this and other historical references suggesting pre-Columbian contacts with 'outsiders', such as the Hochunk (Winnebago) story about an ancestral hero "Red Horn" and his encounter with "red-haired giants".[26]
