Transport is at the center of many economic and social development challenges, accounting for about 64% of the global oil consumption.

    We are in the midst of a fundamental paradigm shift of how we power mobility. Mobility will be powered by a wide range of solutions, including electricity, hydrogen and renewable fuels. This paradigm shift is driven by an urgent need to reduce transport-related emissions, and only by combining all available solutions will we meet climate goals. The climate cannot wait.

    Regulation is one of the keys to drive this shift, regulation has been successful in promoting battery electric and fuel cell vehicles but technology neutrality is still missing as well as a Well-to-Wheels or Life cycle approach, including that would also promote the usage of renewable fuels.

    Availability of renewable fuels is essential, current solutions like HVO (Renewable Diesel) can still be scaled up significantly but there is an upper limit of how much feedstock is available, that why it’s also important to investigate future technologies in parallel. Solutions with high volume potential includes, Lignocellulosic residues (agriculture; forestry), Municipal solid waste and Power-toliquids.

    Road transport is the largest user of renewable fuels, but other sectors are starting to make the shift also, the non-road sector that in many cases is hard to electrify shows a large interest as well as the aviation industry.

    None of the alternatives available, e.g. electrification or renewable fuels will be sufficient alone, especially not according to the required schedule. Remaining to focus on a single solution would be a grave mistake. The necessary technical breakthroughs already exist or are, at least, very close. All we have to do is to create an operating environment and culture that allow us to make optimum use of technologies to combat climate change.
