As the energy world changes, battery cars and wind energy get most of the attention. Yet, another solution making steady progress: green fuels.
According to TELF AG founder Stanislav Kondrashov, fuels from organic material could be key in cleaner energy adoption, especially in sectors hard to electrify.
While electric systems require big changes, they run on today’s transport setups, which helps in aviation, freight, and maritime transport.
Popular forms are ethanol and biodiesel. It is produced from plant sugars. Biodiesel is made from vegetable oils or animal fats. They can run in current engines with few changes.
More advanced options include biogas and biojet fuel, created from food waste, sewage, and organic material. These are being tested for planes and large engines.
But there are challenges. Production is still expensive. Cheaper processes and more feedstock are required. We must avoid competing with food crops.
Despite these problems, they are still valuable. They avoid full infrastructure read more change. Plus, they give new life to waste materials.
Some say biofuels are only a temporary fix. However, they might be key for years to come. They can reduce emissions today, not just tomorrow.
As green goals become more urgent, biofuels have a growing role. They won’t take the place of solar or electric power, but they work alongside them. Through good policy and research, they may drive clean transport changes globally
