In this project, TU Delft develops and improves thermochemical processes for the production of biofuels, while taking into account technical, economic, environmental, social and institutional challenges.
Low-cost sustainable biomass availability in the European Union may not be able to meet increasing demand; exploring the option of importing biomass is therefore imperative for the years to come.
Bioenergy is considered an important component within the European Union (EU) energy transition to meet mid-century climate targets. This study shows how bioenergy can contribute to EU climate targets.
Curious which renewable fuels for heavy-duty trucks are already comparable in costs with fossil fuels? And which other options to defossilise heavy-duty trucks may come up soon?
24-03-2022 | Dit rapport trekt conclusies van een onderzoek naar de vraag 'To drop in or to adapt the engine?' waarin de totale kosten (TCO) van verschillende hernieuwbare brandstofopties en motorcombinaties in het 'Heavy-Duty' wegsegment zijn vergeleken. Bio-DME scoort best.
03-02-2022 | The ACEA E10 vehicle compatibility check list shows which petrol vehicles can safely use E10 unleaded petrol. E10 petrol is a fuel that may contain up to 10% ethanol by volume. The ACEA updated this list with a 2021-update.
This report is are practice case studies worldwide to better understand how biomass supply chains could be implemented to support bioenergy production while simultaneously contributing to the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
This assessment by Development Centre for Ship Technology and Transport Systems (DST) and Expertise- en Innovatie Centrum Binnenvaart (EICB) is part of the overarching “Study on financing the energy transition towards a zero-emission European IWT sector”.
DNV has recently published their Energy Transition Outlook (2021) in which they focus on how key energy transition technologies will develop, compete, and interact in the coming five years.
The International Civil Aviation (ICAO) developed CORSIA, a carbon offset and carbon reduction scheme to decrease climate emissions for international flights. One of the options to comply with CORSIA goals, is to use sustainable aviation fuels, or SAFs.
10-05-2021 | Shell Germany announced advances in their developments of a "blue gasoline" with a minimum of 20 % CO₂ reductions. This is accomplished by adding a mix of renewable naphtha and ethanol to conventional petrol and thereby displacing a third of the fossil content.
In this strategy document the European Commission shares her vision and action plan of how the mobility sector should take shape in the following decades.
This study by Platform Duurzame Biobrandstoffen in collaboration with TU Delft is a review of the most viable biofuels for the maritime sector and how their sustainable production can be ensured from an early stage of supply chain design.
