Abstract :
Transportation is one of the major consumer of energy in US and around the world. According to the latest Department of Energy (DOE) Transportation Data Book [1], 27.8% of total US energy consumption is attributed to transportation. Of this amount, 58.9% is consumed by cars and light duty trucks to make up 16.4% of total energy consumed by Americans. To put this in perspective, according to DOE energy usage estimates [2] 39.2% of energy consumed in US is spent for electricity generation.
