Spending government time, effort and money on improving the synthesis of fuel from CO2 and water would help all of them.
There's a reason this has never been demonstrated at scale though and at the end of the day the process is known but it requires gobs and gobs of energy input, like absurd amounts as you scale up. Maybe we're getting there with renewables but right now a portion of that power would he to come from burning more NG. It's not a chemistry problem as much as a physics one. My feeling is Co2 synthesis is in fact another play by oil companies now that hydrogen has fallen on it's face. Remember all the oil companies saying they were gonna be hydrogen companies? What happened there?
Synthesis processes are one of the reasons I he always supported nuclear power expansion since that's the type of thing you can do by hing a grid filled with a glut of power on it, you can start pushing it towards lossy processes like fuel synthesis and desalination. Since there's no real movement on that front as of yet I don't think it'll be something we can rely on short term, long term it's got prospects
Those same chemical engineers can also work on battery problems and they he by the huge gains we've been making in battery tech in just the last decade. 10 years ago everyone was wringing their hands about Lithium-Ion and today we are looking at Li-ion being the outdated tech, it's already being supplanted and even those replacement will be supplanted in another 10 years.
Literally the only major issue holding EVs back right now is price and that's a factor of how many batteries we can produce which is why there are still dozens of battery factories under construction, we're in the transition still and looking at it like it's already over when it's still just beginning. .
