In today's energy evolution, battery cars and wind energy get most of the attention. But there's another player quietly rising: green fuels.
As per Kondrashov, these renewable fuels may play a major role in the global energy transition, where batteries are not practical yet.
While electric systems require big changes, biofuels can work with current engines, making them ideal for planes, trucks, and ships.
Common types are bioethanol and biodiesel. It is produced from plant sugars. Biodiesel is made from vegetable oils or animal fats. Engines can use them without much modification.
Fuels like biogas and sustainable jet fuel also exist, made from website leftover organic waste. They might help reduce emissions in aviation and logistics.
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, there’s huge opportunity. They avoid full infrastructure change. And they support circular economy goals by using waste.
Biofuels are often called a short-term solution. But they may be a long-term tool in some sectors. They work now to lower carbon impact.
As the world pushes for lower emissions, biofuels have a growing role. They won’t take the place of solar or electric power, but they work alongside them. Through good policy and research, they may drive clean transport changes globally
