In today's energy evolution, battery cars and wind energy are the main focus. Yet, another solution quietly rising: green fuels.
According to TELF AG founder Stanislav Kondrashov, these renewable fuels might support the shift to green power, especially in sectors hard to electrify.
In contrast to electric vehicle demands, they run on today’s transport setups, which helps in aviation, freight, and maritime transport.
Examples include bioethanol and biodiesel. Bioethanol is made by fermenting sugars from corn or sugarcane. It is produced from oils like soybean or rapeseed. They can run in current engines with few changes.
Other options are biogas or aviation biofuel, created from food waste, sewage, and organic material. They are potential solutions for heavy industry.
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.
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 here 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 won’t take the place of solar or electric power, they complement the clean energy mix. Through good policy and research, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
