P-Series
P-Series is a relatively new alternative fuel. It is a blend of natural
gas liquids, ethanol, and biomass extracts. It has significant
emissions benefits over gasoline, the greenhouse emissions are about
50% lower than that of gasoline. The use of P-Series would also reduce
fossil fuel energy use by 49%-57%, as well petroleum use by 80%.
P-Series comes almost completely from domestic renewable sources.
Already major companies such as Dodge and Ford have begun making models
that support P-Series as an alternative fuel. P-Series was first added
to the list of alternative fuels in 1999. This is actually its major
weakness. Since it is so new, not everything is known about it yet.
Also, since it is so new, we have not yet seen any sort of widespread
use of P-Series. So although it seems as if it has alot of potential,
we need to wait until we see more of the facts.
