[Gasification] ...a question about hybrids

[Michael Redler]

Jeff's question (re: better yield) reminded me of another thread.


  If the yield from gassification is enough to effectively power a car with variations in load/power, could the mileage of the same car be taken further if the producer gas were feeding a Lister/Listeroid generator which fed a bank of batteries?

So, it would be a producer gas, electric hybrid using a trailer to carry the gassifier and generator. I guess the next question would be...could you match the average kW hours of a 100+ hp engine usually used in a car, with a 900 Watt Lister (for example)?

I can't remember talking about this before (or haven't been around long enough to remember it) and I can't find a thread on this in the archives.
