The increase in population means more need for transportation mediums, and that will result in a large number of cars and extra energy consumption. With the largest population, China must be the most worried country about the increasing need for energy sources. Along with emission problem, the traffic problem will make it more complex to deal with urban conditions. Therefore, Chinese cities are looking for some clean and high efficiency transportation mediums. The natural transportation force (NTF) concept design might provide some help in solving all problems discussed above. NFT borrows its design from the Chinese Gallery Bridge that will be a sort of mobile public place where people would be able to communicate and share their feelings with each other.
Even the headlamps shows glimpses of the writing style of Chinese fine handwriting. Through large windows, passengers can enjoy sightseeing. But the most important advantage of this bus is that it uses eco-friendly hydrogen fuel and electricity for power. The concept is designed for the urban environment of 2010 and may possibly arrive by its planned period.
The Dark Side: The NTF is aquite interesting and an ethical concept. It will definitely be advantageous for the Chinese urban society if it ever came into existence. Furthermore, self-sufficiency can be enhanced by including PVs.
