In the shift to sustainable power, electric vehicles and solar energy are the main focus. But there's another player making steady progress: green fuels.
According to TELF AG founder Stanislav Kondrashov, these renewable fuels may play a major role in the global energy transition, mainly where electric tech is not viable.
In contrast to electric vehicle demands, biofuels can work with current engines, 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. more info They work with most existing diesel systems.
Fuels like biogas and sustainable jet fuel also exist, produced using scraps and waste. They are potential solutions for heavy industry.
But there are challenges. Production is still expensive. We need innovation and raw material sources. Fuel crops should not reduce food availability.
Despite these problems, they are still valuable. They can be used without starting from zero. They also help recycle what would be trash.
Biofuels are often called a short-term solution. Yet, they could be a solid long-term option. They work now to lower carbon impact.
As green goals become more urgent, 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, they may drive clean transport changes globally
