Nuclear Energy • Nuclear Energy is energy stored in the nucleus of an atom––the energy that holds the nucleus together. Scientists are working on creating fusion energy on earth, so that someday there might be fusion power plants.
Fuel Cell Electric • 1839 William Grove • NASA uses for space flight • 1998 Chicago first city to power buses. • Requires Hydrogen
Hybrid Electric • 1830s-1920s was popular • Uses electrical and mechanical energy • Japan was first in 1997, Toyota • Use gasoline or renewable resources. • Save money with fueling
Liquefied Petroleum Gas • 1910 Dr. Walter Snelling • Nonrenewable • U.S. largest producer of LPG • Mostly used for heating and cooking
