Tell me, what's wrong with this move by UK Govt? It looks good to me.
Since the giftlink may expire, it's a story about promoting biofuels for houses currently with oil boilers* instead of a hard mandate to install replacement heat pumps instead.
[*Typically in the countryside away from mains gas supply.]

This is all good news, but something that stands out as particularly good news is how much investment into has decreased.

Some folk are energy blind! (they see it as it is, not how it has to be)

Context is important when discussing "solutions". The solid, liquid & gas fuel industries are fundamentally flawed. & must be replaced eventually to mitigate climate change.

The clue why fuel industries are fundamentally flawed is because they're fuel *industries*. Their business models of, e.g., transporting heavy fuel products, often over very long distances, is flawed.

EPA Approved a Fuel Ingredient Even Though It Could Cause in Virtually Every Person Exposed Over a Lifetime
==

An document shows that a new ingredient has a lifetime cancer risk more than 1 million times higher than what the agency usually finds acceptable — even greater than another Chevron fuel’s sky-high risk disclosed earlier this year.

Scientists have long eyed switchgrass as a promising and sustainable source of fuels that can replace gasoline and other petroleum products. New research shows the plant can help slow climate change, but only if grown on the right lands.

A new study by researchers at the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center found switchgrass grown on abandoned farm fields and other marginal lands in Michigan could produce enough biofuel to cut annual greenhouse gas emissions by at least 1.2 million metric tons. That’s roughly equivalent to taking nearly 260,000 passenger cars off the road.

continue to be cool.

Jonelle Basso, one of our postdoctoral researchers, is studying plant-microbe interactions using single-cell genomics. Greater understanding of the plant root microbiome can lead to more efficient and sustainable feedstocks for plant-based biofuels and bioproducts.

Periodic reminder that will be of very limited use to solve our energy production problems, and most certainly not for transport. It may be a thing for heavy industry, but that's about it.

Sources said the US opposition could be due to the fact that promoting bio-fuel as a drop in fuel could negatively impact the promotion of other green fuels

Interested in ? 🎧Then put your headphones on & listen to our podcast!
Our episode explores biofuels and how we can turn waste into energy which is then used as fuel.
This can help us meet our greenhouse gas reduction targets👉europa.eu/!XhQNhN t.co/UWywIcvwPI
