Can the GreenTower become a trigger for non-polluting transport technologies?
Very much so, since emission-free power transport technologies like battery cars and vehicles running on compressed air or hydrogen require an emission-free, cheap primary power source not to become an environmental and economic nuisance: Drawing power from an oil-fired power station results in an overall efficiency of 16% at the car’s gearbox due to the many steps of energy conversion, whilst modern diesel-engines exhibit an average 33% efficiency: Using polluting primary energy for non-polluting transport often results in doubling (CO2) emissions. The GreenTower generates not only emission-free power but also at the lowest possible price, so that hydrogen fuel, generated by electrolysers at the fuel-station, would today be cheaper than untaxed diesel-fuel at present crude oil prices.
