Substitute Fuels
Oil is increasingly expensive, so what feasible alternatives are there? Are wind- and wave-power capable of fulfilling our energy needs? Could we heat our homes by solar energy - or by burning municipal waste? Is there any real possibility of an electric car that would do more than short journeys? Put your questions on substitute fuels to Ian Fells. Professor of Energy Conversion at the University of Newcastle, and Dr Nigel Lucas. Lecturer in Energy Policy, Imperial College, London. Sue Mac Gregor is in the Chair. Produced by the Woman's Hour Unit
Lines open from 8.0 am long wave only
