The European Commission is devising a methodology to assess which renewable liquid and gaseous transport fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs) deliver substantial carbon reductions. Here's T&E's views on the methodology.
RFNBOs are fuels made from renewable sources other than biomass. These renewable sources refer mostly to renewable electricity produced with wind and solar power. Electrofuels such as hydrogen, ammonia and synthetic hydrocarbons like e-kerosene are examples of such RFNBOs.
T&E’s key positions are the following:
Europe can’t decarbonise the world on its own. But it must develop policies that work so that other nations can copy and adapt them
T&E’s William Todts looks at whether a climate deal that potentially doubles the global biofuels market can be considered a good deal?
The European Commission missed a big opportunity to create a cleantech bazooka.
