The dependence on petroleum and other energy sources has exponentially increased during the last few decades. Resources claim that more coal has been used since 1945 onwards than ever before it was used. It is not just the auto market which is facing the energy crises but manufacturing plants and many other fuel dependent industries have become the victims of the energy crises.
The leading auto companies have been trying to sort this problem out, to reduce the fuel dependence as effectively as possible. The solution comes in the form of alternative fuel sources which include plug-in and Hybrid technologies and green technologies but the question that many people still ask is that is it going to be ultimate solution of the energy crises? The answer goes certainly in negative. Making electric cars does not mean we have cut off our demand for fuel. The cars you run using electric power needs electricity to be generated and increasing electric demand means you need more and more power plants and if these plants are to run on oil, coal or gas then you have done no good to cut off the fuel demand.
Another major problem regarding electric cars is that they need to be plugged in daily and with increasing demand for electric cars at global level, power grid stations need to be built. Google has been working on this project (as I discussed in one of my post) but many companies need to think on it sincerely as this recent technology attracts more and more customers each day.
