Ethanol is now blended
into almost all gasoline sold here and accounts for roughly 10 % of total U.S.
motor fuel.
(a) Fossil
fuels and electricity moved
into the state via the primary
fuel supply tank of a
motor vehicle, vessel, locomotive, or aircraft.
The reason is ethanol, which the federal government insists be blended
into every gallon of
motor fuel refined and sold in the United States.
They want Washington to force refiners like ExxonMobil to blend 15 percent ethanol — or E15 —
into the
motor -
fuel supply.
They use batteries to power an electric
motor, plug
into the electric grid to charge, and use a petroleum - based or alternative
fuel to power the internal combustion engine.
It would then be turned back
into electricity in
fuel cells and drive electric
motors, which is what batteries do.
