He's basically calling for the NASA X-Prize contest in the battery field. Great idea, but in reality he's just riding the coat tails of the high price of gas concerns.

Not sure why he stopped there. Should've offered another 300 million for advanced fuel cells, biodiesel tech, etc...

 

[Nambi]

omg 300 million dollars for research that could easily save billions and potentially trillions.

Imbecile.

 

[Ackles]

It's just his way of pandering. Along with the nuclear power plant idea. Sounds good to voters, but he's just bullshitting

 

[MikeJames]

How is going to save "billions and potentially trillions"? In case you've forgotten how batteries work, they need to be charged. Where do you think electricity comes from?

 

[smelly refrigerator]

How we going to pay for this? Raise taxes?

 

[jhalie]

I believe you (Cambrad) have been served

 

[thya]

our budget is $3 trillion, i'm sure they could scrounge up 300mil

Charging batteries from a power plant and running a car off of that energy is much cheaper than powering cars via internal combustion engines which are less efficient (and their fuel is more expensive) than a coal power plant or a nuclear plant.

That is where $X will be saved.
