Fossil free transport through electrification and renewable fuels
Electrified transport with complementary use of renewable fuels where electrification is impossible was previously considered unrealistic. Such a 100 percent renewable transport scenario is however appearing as increasingly realistic. A substantial electrification and use of biofuels for remaining transport in clean combustion engines with no air pollutants will in addition shift the environmental and climate challenges of the transport industry. The challenges will increasingly revolve around sufficient access of primary energy as well as production and distribution of clean energy carriers. At present there are many examples of coming electrification among all modes of traffic:
- Autonomous and electric driven container ships. Read more
- Small electric driven jet planes with vertical take-off and landing. Read more
- Hydrogen fuel cell driven trains for non-electrified tracks. Read more
