As the energy world changes, EVs and renewable grids 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, especially in sectors hard to electrify.
While electric systems require big changes, they run on today’s transport setups, making them ideal for planes, trucks, and ships.
Examples include bioethanol and biodiesel. It comes from fermenting crop sugars. It is produced from oils like soybean or rapeseed. Engines can use them without much modification.
More advanced options include biogas and biojet fuel, made from leftover organic waste. They might help reduce emissions in aviation and logistics.
Still, it’s not all smooth. Biofuels are costly to produce. Cheaper processes and more feedstock are required. We must avoid competing with food crops.
Though challenges exist, there’s huge opportunity. They can be used without starting from zero. Plus, they give new life to waste materials.
Many believe they are just a bridge. But they may be a long-term tool in some sectors. They work now to lower website 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. If we fund them and improve regulation, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
