Biofuel can replace other energy sources

Publish date: January 16, 2007

According to Finish scientists, biofuel can become a single energy source for people during the next 20-30 years.

The scientists think that people can fulfill their energy needs with the help of biofuel production technology, based on plants photosynthesis. About two percent of the Earth’s territory is required, ITAR TASS reports.

Photosynthesis reaction for biofuel production is based on sugar preparation. This sugar is to be converted into bioethanol and used as vehicles fuel.

A great leap towards a scaled European market for CCS: Northern Lights expands storage capacity, will store CO₂ from Stockholm  

Europe’s only multi-source, injection-ready CO₂ storage site will more than triple its capacity by 2028. The decision follows an agreement with Stockholm Exergi to transport and store up to 800 – 900 kilotonnes of CO₂ per year. “This decision is years in the making, and the culmination of decades of hard work from many, Bellona included” says Bellona Europa Director Jonas Helseth.
