A report was released Wednesday by the National Petroleum Council (NPC) on the status of alternative fuels and recommendations on how to accelerate the adoption of new fuels and technologies. The report is meant to answer questions from the U.S. Department of Energy on how to speed up the use of alternative fuels (i.e. natural gas, biofuels, etc.) in the next few decades given that nearly all of the country’s transportation fuel comes from oil.

Throughout the development of the Scuderi Engine technology, there have been many discoveries and new inventions. A special one is what we affectionately call the “Soap Bar,” a system within the variable valve actuation (VVA) system. Read more about "How the Soap Bar works"...
In the United States Tuesday, the Obama administration issued new rules requiring automakers to drastically improve vehicle fuel efficiency. The new standards will require an average fuel economy of 54.5 miles per gallon for the 2025 model year. Current rules for the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) program mandate at 35.5 mpg by 2016. Read more about "A boost for efficiency"...
