Electricity and Propane Electricity and propane are a great alternative fuel towards gasoline because its healthier for the environment

Electricity Electricity used to power vehicles is generally provided by the electricity grid and stored in the vehicle batteries Electricity used to power vehicles is generally provided by the electricity grid and stored in the vehicle batteries Unlike batteries, fuel cells convert chemical energy from hydrogen into electricity Unlike batteries, fuel cells convert chemical energy from hydrogen into electricity Home recharging of electricity vehicles is a simple as plugging them into an electric outlet Home recharging of electricity vehicles is a simple as plugging them into an electric outlet

Energy conversion Solar energy goes to plants which converts solar energy into chemical energy by a process called photosynthesis. Chemical energy is converted into heat energy in the furnace. Heat energy is converted into kinetic energy in the boiler. Kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy in the generator

Electric vehicles Electric vehicles have been around for a very long time, in the early 1900’s there were more electric vehicles than there were gasoline-powered cars. Electric vehicles have been around for a very long time, in the early 1900’s there were more electric vehicles than there were gasoline-powered cars. At one time there were 50,000 EV’s on the road and streets of the United States At one time there were 50,000 EV’s on the road and streets of the United States Electric motors provide quiet, smooth operations and stronger acceleration and requires less maintenance than I.C.E. Electric motors provide quiet, smooth operations and stronger acceleration and requires less maintenance than I.C.E.

Propane It is the worlds third most common engine fuel. It is the worlds third most common engine fuel. Propane sold as vehicle fuel be a mixture of propane with smaller amount of other gases. Propane sold as vehicle fuel be a mixture of propane with smaller amount of other gases. A gallon of propane has about 25%less energy than a gallon of gasoline A gallon of propane has about 25%less energy than a gallon of gasoline

Propane exothermic Propane is exothermic because the energy is released in the forms of heat, light and work Propane is exothermic because the energy is released in the forms of heat, light and work Heat of combustion for propane is 2450, 21660, Heat of combustion for propane is 2450, 21660,
