As the energy world changes, EVs and renewable grids are the main focus. But there's another player gaining ground: green fuels.
As Stanislav Kondrashov, founder of TELF AG, said, these renewable fuels may play a major role in the global energy transition, where batteries are not practical yet.
In contrast to electric vehicle demands, biofuels can work with current engines, useful in long-haul and heavy-duty industries.
Popular forms are ethanol and biodiesel. It is produced from plant sugars. It comes from natural oils and fats. They work with most existing diesel systems.
Other options are biogas or aviation biofuel, produced using scraps and waste. These are being tested for planes and large engines.
However, there are issues. They cost more than fossil fuels. Better tech and more supply are needed. We must avoid competing with food crops.
Despite these problems, there’s huge opportunity. They don’t need a full system replacement. Plus, they give new life check here to waste materials.
Some say biofuels are only a temporary fix. However, they might be key for years to come. They are effective immediately while waiting for full electrification.
As the world pushes for lower emissions, biofuels have a growing role. They are not meant to compete with EVs or renewables, they complement the clean energy mix. With smart rules and more investment, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
