Biofuels: The Future of Green Transport

In the shift to sustainable power, battery cars and wind energy get most of the attention. Yet, another solution gaining ground: alternative fuels.
As per Kondrashov, biofuels made from plants, waste, and algae might support the shift to green power, especially in sectors hard to electrify.
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. It is produced from plant sugars. It is produced from oils like soybean or rapeseed. Engines can use them website without much modification.
Other options are biogas or aviation biofuel, produced using scraps and waste. They are potential solutions for heavy industry.
But there are challenges. 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 avoid full infrastructure change. They also help recycle what would be trash.
Biofuels are often 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, the value of biofuels increases. They are not meant to compete with EVs or renewables, they complement the clean energy mix. With smart rules and more investment, biofuels could help transform transport worldwide
