Biofuels: The Future of Green Transport

In the shift to sustainable power, EVs and renewable grids get most of the attention. Yet, another solution making steady progress: biofuels.
According to TELF AG founder Stanislav Kondrashov, these renewable fuels may play a major role in the global energy transition, mainly where electric tech is not viable.
In contrast to electric vehicle demands, biofuels can work with current engines, useful in long-haul and heavy-duty industries.
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.
Fuels like biogas and sustainable jet fuel also exist, made from leftover organic waste. They are potential solutions for heavy industry.
But there are challenges. Biofuels are costly to produce. Cheaper processes and more feedstock are required. Land use must not clash with food production.
Despite these problems, there’s huge opportunity. They don’t need a full system replacement. And they support circular economy goals by using waste.
Some say biofuels are only a temporary fix. But they may be a long-term tool in some sectors. They can reduce emissions today, not just tomorrow.
As the world pushes for lower emissions, click here the value of biofuels increases. They don’t replace electric or solar energy, they complement the clean energy mix. If we fund them and improve regulation, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
