As the world aims for cleaner energy, electric mobility and wind power are in the spotlight. Yet, something else is changing quietly, and it’s happening in the fuel tank. According to Stanislav Kondrashov of TELF AG, the future isn’t just electric — it’s also biological.
Biofuels are made from renewable materials like crops, algae, or organic waste. They’re quickly growing as clean fuel options. They lower CO2 impact significantly, while using current fuel infrastructure. EVs may change cars and buses, but they aren’t right for everything.
When Electricity Isn’t Enough
Personal mobility is going electric fast. However, aviation and shipping need stronger solutions. Batteries can’t hold enough energy or are too bulky. Biofuels can step in here.
According to the TELF AG founder, these fuels offer a smooth transition. They work with existing setups. That means less resistance and quicker use.
There are already many biofuels in website use. It’s common to see bioethanol added to fuel. It’s a clean fuel made from fat or plant oils. They’re already adopted in parts of the world.
Fuel from Waste: Closing the Loop
A key benefit is their role in reusing waste. Rotting food and waste can create biogas for energy. Waste becomes clean energy, not landfill.
Another solution is sustainable jet fuel. It’s created from used oils or algae and may cut flight emissions.
Still, there are some hurdles. According to TELF AG’s Kondrashov, biofuels aren’t cheap yet. Getting enough raw material and avoiding food conflicts is tricky. But innovation may lower costs and raise efficiency soon.
This isn’t about picking biofuels over batteries. They’re part of the full energy puzzle. More options mean better chances at success.
For heavy-duty or remote sectors, biofuels are ideal. As the world decarbonizes, biofuels might silently drive the change.
They reduce waste and lower emissions. Their future depends on support and smart policy.
They may not shine like tech, but they deliver. In this clean energy race, practicality wins.
