That would be a lot of gas saved, but alternatives now make up only 1.8% of our nations electrical energy usage. We would be just going from the tail pipe to the smoke stack. Makes more sense to skip the middle man and use natural gas directly for the transportation fuel. A123 got a grant (not loan) from US taxpayers of $248 MILLION. I guess if you are bankrupt, makes little difference which it was. The reason they went under is very simple. US citizens are not buying EV's and hybrids to support the concept. Volts are now down to $157/month with $157 down on a 2 year walk away lease and not selling. If they get much lower, I might get one myself as a pet.
