This chapter summarizes the alternative vehicle petroleum consumption findings from this book. We analyze the petroleum consumption for all US alternative vehicles and fuels for two time periods similar to the greenhouse gas periods covered in Chap. 8: (1) A near-term “Business-as-usual” condition through 2020, and (2) A longer-term assessment over the twenty-first century. Our goal is to reduce oil consumption to a level that all oil imports can be supplied by non-OPEC nations and preferably by friendly nations from the Americas.
