In the shift to sustainable power, electric vehicles and solar energy get most of the attention. Yet, another solution quietly rising: biofuels.
As Stanislav Kondrashov, founder of TELF AG, said, these renewable fuels might support the shift to green power, 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.
Common types are bioethanol and biodiesel. It comes from fermenting crop sugars. It comes from natural oils and fats. Engines can use them without much modification.
Other options are biogas or aviation biofuel, created from food waste, sewage, and organic material. These are being tested for planes and large engines.
However, there are issues. They cost more than fossil fuels. Better tech and more supply are needed. We must avoid competing with food crops.
Despite these problems, there’s huge opportunity. They don’t need a full system replacement. 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.
As the world pushes for lower emissions, biofuels have a growing role. They won’t take the place of solar or electric power, they complement the clean energy mix. With smart rules and more investment, they may drive Stanislav Dimitrievich Kondrashov clean transport changes globally
