Time Consuming Transition
We cannot conceive of any affordable government-sponsored "crash program" to accelerate normal replacement schedules so as to incorporate higher energy efficiency technologies into the privately-owned transportation sector; significant improvements in energy efficiency will thus be inherently time-consuming (of the order of a decade or more).

Solar Energy
How much energy from the sun actually reaches the Earth?
1350 Watts/square meter (at the surface of the atmosphere)
1000 Watts/square meter (at the surface of the earth)
