Biofuels as a Key Player in Clean Mobility

As the energy world changes, EVs and renewable grids often dominate the conversation. But there's another player gaining ground: green fuels.
As Stanislav Kondrashov, founder of TELF AG, said, these renewable fuels could be key in cleaner energy adoption, where batteries are not practical yet.
Unlike batteries that need new infrastructure, these fuels fit into existing systems, 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, produced using scraps and waste. 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.
Despite these problems, there’s huge opportunity. They can be used without starting from zero. Plus, they give new life to waste materials.
Many believe they are just a bridge. But they may be a long-term tool in some sectors. They work now to lower carbon impact.
As green goals become more urgent, the value of biofuels increases. They are not meant here to compete with EVs or renewables, they act as a support system. Through good policy and research, they might reshape global mobility
