What is Winning the Oil Endgame?
{{italictitle}} '''''Winning the Oil Endgame''''' is a 2005 book by [[Amory B. Lovins]], published by the [[Rocky Mountain Institute]]. It talks about four ways to reduce [[petroleum|oil]] (petroleum) dependence in the United States: *Using oil more efficiently (pp.&nbsp;29–102). *Substituting other liquids for oil (pp.&nbsp;103–111). *Substituting saved natural gas for oil (pp.&nbsp;111–122). *Replacing oil with hydrogen (pp.&nbsp;228–242). ==Problems and solutions== The authors suggest that oil dependence is a problem we need no longer have. U.S. oil dependence can be profitably eliminated by proven and attractive technologies. The authors argue that America can lead the world into the post-petroleum era and create a vibrant economy. (p.xiii) ==The Author== [[Amory Lovins]] has published 28 books and hundreds of papers. His work has been recognized by the [[Right Livelihood Award|Alternative Nobel]], Onassis, Nissan, Shingo and Mitchell prizes, a MacArthur Fellowship, the Happold Medal, eight honorary doctorates, and the Heinz, Lindbergh, World Technology, and [[Hero of the Planet]] Awards.<ref>[http://www.rmi.org/images/PDFs/Transportation/T04-01_HypercarH2AutoTrans.pdf Hypercars, hydrogen, and the automotive transition] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130704183949/http://www.rmi.org/images/PDFs/Transportation/T04-01_HypercarH2AutoTrans.pdf |date=2013-07-04 }} ''International Journal of Vehicle Design'', Vol. 35, Nos. 1/2, 2004, p. 50.</ref> Lovins has also acted as a consultant to many [[Fortune 500]] companies.<ref>[http://www.rmi.org/images/PDFs/Energy/E05-07_TiltingAtEnergy.pdf Tilting at Energy Windmills] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070714170522/https://www.rmi.org/images/PDFs/Energy/E05-07_TiltingAtEnergy.pdf |date=2007-07-14 }} ''The Wall Street Journal'', 25 July 2005.</ref> ==Related pages== *[[Energy efficiency]] *[[Energy conservation]] *[[Peak oil]] *[[Renewable energy commercialization]] *[[Soft energy technology]] *[[Soft energy path]] ==References== <ref
