Europe Could Completely Replace Fossil Fuels in Road Transport

According to calculations by researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Europe could meet all of its road transport fuel needs with renewable sources by 2040, and more than half by 2030. The European Union has enough residual and waste materials to supply climate-neutral liquid fuels for all of its road transport needs. For their project, the researchers analyzed the amounts of biogenic raw materials (plant-based residues, wood scraps, or organic waste) available in Europe, how they can be converted by technical means to renewable fuels, and the future fuel requirements of road transport.
