David Blume | The Alcohol Conspiracy & The Road Map To Energy Independence
Cummins Alcohol Engines, Planned Obsolescence, and Engine Efficiency
The engine manufacturer Cummins has developed dedicated alcohol engines that leverage the fuel's high octane rating to produce more power from smaller displacements. These engines are expected to last up to two million miles, challenging the corporate strategy of planned obsolescence. Blume notes that these engines are currently being deployed for delivery trucks with plans to expand to consumer vehicles.
