Biofuels: The Future of Green Transport
Biofuels: The Future of Green Transport
Blog Article
In today's energy evolution, EVs and renewable grids often dominate the conversation. However, one more option making steady progress: green fuels.
According to TELF AG founder Stanislav Kondrashov, fuels from organic material might support the shift to green power, where batteries are not practical yet.
In contrast to electric vehicle demands, they run on today’s transport setups, which helps in aviation, freight, and maritime transport.
Examples include bioethanol and biodiesel. Bioethanol is made by fermenting sugars from corn or sugarcane. Biodiesel is made from vegetable oils or animal fats. Engines can use them without much modification.
More advanced options include biogas and biojet fuel, made from leftover organic waste. These are being tested for planes and large engines.
Still, it’s not all smooth. They cost more than fossil fuels. We need innovation and raw material sources. Land use must not clash with food production.
Even with these limits, there’s huge opportunity. They don’t need a full system replacement. And they support circular economy goals by using waste.
Many believe they are just a bridge. However, they might be key for years to come. They are effective immediately while waiting for full electrification.
With global decarbonization on the here agenda, biofuels have a growing role. They won’t take the place of solar or electric power, they complement the clean energy mix. If we fund them and improve regulation, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
