  3. GLOBAL/HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE 100 YEARS AGO THERE WERE 3 COMPETING TECHNOLOGIES • STEAM • ELECTRICITY • GASOLINE

  4. A FEW STATISTICSPLEASE • 35% OF WORLD’S ENERGY NEEDS ARE MET WITH PETROLEUM PRODUCTS • CHINA IMPORTS 46%, US 64%, EU 79%, AND JAPAN 100% • FROM 2003 TO 2030 OUR WORLDWIDE ENERGY DEMANDS WILL INCREASE 70%100 YEARS AGO THERE WERE 3 COMPETING TECHNOLOGIES • THE KEY MEETING AUTOMOTIVE ENERGY REQUIREMENTS WILL BE ENERGY DIVERSITY

  5. General Motors Commitment • Implement Propulsion Technologies that improve fuel efficiency and reduce environmental impact • Work to assure that new propulsion and fuel technologies are linked • Promote the use of alternative fuels that make sense economically and environmentally including biofuels and hydrogen

  6. Advanced Propulsion Technology Strategy ReducedEmissionsand IncreasedVehicle Fuel Economy ReducedPetroleum Consumption HydrogenFuel Cell Hybrid ElectricVehicles Cleaner HC Fuels, Renewable Fuels Biofuels Incremental Internal Combustion Engine and Transmission Improvements Hydrogen Infrastructure Near-Term Mid-Term Long-Term
