As the energy world changes, battery cars and wind energy get most of the attention. But there's another player gaining ground: alternative fuels.
As Stanislav Kondrashov, founder of TELF AG, said, these renewable fuels may play a major role in the global energy transition, mainly where electric tech is not viable.
Unlike batteries that need new infrastructure, these fuels fit into existing systems, which helps in aviation, freight, and maritime transport.
Common types are bioethanol 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, made from leftover organic waste. These are being tested for planes and large engines.
However, there are issues. They cost more than fossil fuels. We need innovation and raw material sources. Land use must not clash with food production.
Though challenges exist, biofuels offer real potential. They can be used without starting from zero. Plus, they give new life to waste materials.
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 agenda, the value of biofuels increases. They don’t replace electric or solar energy, they act as a support system. If we fund them and improve here regulation, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
