DOE BETO releases new strategic plan; biofuels to constitute 25% of US transportation fuels by 2040

Green Car Congress

Additionally, many chemicals relied upon for transportation (such as oils and lubricants) as well as other commodity chemicals and polymer precursors are, and will likely remain, carbon-based. By 2040, enable large-scale biomass production and conversion that allows biofuels to constitute 25% of the US transportation fuel market.

UK study finds Bio-SNG could offer 90% reduction in lifecycle CO2; lower cost of carbon abatement than electrical solutions for transport applications

Green Car Congress

Cost of carbon abated for transport applications. Downstream of the gasifier the gas processing operations are conventional technology: heat recovery and power generation, gas scrubbing, water gas shift, methanation, conditioning and compression. This saving is similar for both conventional heating and transport applications.

Study for European Parliament assesses options for turning CO2 into methanol for use in transport

Green Car Congress

A report prepared by ISIS (Institute of Studies for the Integration of Systems - Italy) together with Tecnalia (Spain) for the European Parliamentary Research Service (EPRS) discusses the technological, environmental and economic barriers for producing methanol from carbon dioxide, as well as the possible uses of methanol in car transport in Europe.
