msnbc.msn.com â€" A transition to vehicles that run on hydrogen â€" and independence from oil as well as a sharp drop in carbon emissions â€" is doable but that best-case scenario requires nearly $200 billion in funding and further breakthroughs, National Research Council experts said in a report requested by Congress. The experts concluded that hydrogen could be the key driver of a shift away from fossil fuels and emissions tied to global warming, with other clean technologies and biofuels helping in that transition. In their report, the experts concluded that "deep reductions in oil use, nearly 100 percent by 2050 for the light-duty vehicle fleet," are possible. "Achieving this goal, however, will require significant new energy security and environmental policy actions in addition to technological developments."
