Advanced biofuels
Advanced biofuels are produced from sustainable sources and can replace fossil fuels in the transition to climate neutrality in Europe
Advanced biofuels are drop-in replacements for fossil fuels being used in existing engines, heating technologies or industrial applications. This means that individuals, businesses and industries across Europe can switch to using advanced biofuels in a seamless and cost-effective way, on the transition to the EU’s 2050 climate targets.
Data modelling from the Imperial College London consultants concludes that the potential available of sustainable biomass, with no harm to biodiversity, could support advanced and waste-based biofuel production in Europe of up to 350m tonnes per year by 2050. This showcases how advanced biofuels, together with synthetic and waste based fuels, can support climate neutrality alongside electrification in Europe.
There are a huge amount of benefits to using and producing advanced biofuels in Europe. Some of these are as follows:
