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:
The draft regulations are not 'a strategic blunder', they are essential to ensure that high-carbon projects cannot receive public funding, write GH2's...
