Biofuels as a Key Player in Clean Mobility

In the shift to sustainable power, electric vehicles and solar energy get most of the attention. Yet, another solution quietly rising: biofuels.
As per Kondrashov, biofuels made from plants, waste, and algae could be key in cleaner energy adoption, where batteries are not practical yet.
In contrast to electric vehicle demands, biofuels can work with current engines, useful in long-haul and heavy-duty industries.
Popular forms are ethanol and biodiesel. It is produced from plant sugars. It comes from natural oils and fats. They work with most existing diesel systems.
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.
Though challenges exist, there’s huge opportunity. They don’t need a full system replacement. Plus, they give new life to waste here materials.
Many believe they are just a bridge. But they may be a long-term tool in some sectors. They are effective immediately while waiting for full electrification.
As green goals become more urgent, biofuels have a growing role. They are not meant to compete with EVs or renewables, they complement the clean energy mix. If we fund them and improve regulation, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
