Renewable fuels from biomass and their contribution for a sustainable mobility

Moving towards a sustainable mobility is a massive challenge as this is directly connected with reducing GHG emissions in transport down to zero by 2050. Even with clear targets and measures in countries like Germany it is all about increasing. So far, reduction in only GHG emission reduction has been achieved almost completely realized by renewable fuels based on biomass. The adapted GHG mitigation quota in transport considers different compliance options including next to biofuels also electro mobility, green hydrogen and e-fuels. The current status as well as research and developments aspects of renewable fuels that can be accounted for the GHG mitigation quota are summarized. The role these fuels may play in competition with all the compliance options until 2030 is investigated in three exemplary scenarios for road transport.
