Study suggests that decarbonizing US transport sector by converting waste CO2 to fuels would require economical air-capture of CO2

Green Car Congress

Over time, however, as the CO 2 price increases, it eventually becomes more economical to either retrofit plants to capture and store most of. When that carbon is converted into a fuel, burned, and exhausted to the atmosphere, the overall cycle is roughly neutral. emissions. their CO 2 (e.g. ~90%) the power sector, Kreutz notes.)

The horizontal red lines show the comparable price of gasoline (before tax, refining margin 0.3 $/gal, exchange rate: 1 € = 1.326 $) with crude oil prices 100 $/bbl and 150 $/bbl. Converted into gasoline-equivalent price per liter, the estimated production cost would be 0.5–0.7 Source: VTT. 0.7 €/liter (app.

Analysis Finds That First-Generation Biofuel Use of Up to 5.6% in EU Road Transport Fuels Delivers Net GHG Emissions Benefits After Factoring in Indirect Land Use Change

Green Car Congress

of first-generation, land-using biofuels in EU road transport fuels delivers a net greenhouse gas reduction benefit (13 Mt CO 2 savings in a 20-year horizon) even after factoring in indirect land use change (ILUC) effects. Renewable energy options for road transport included first- and second-generation biofuels and electricity.
