Abstract

Fuels based on renewable energy sources (RES) such as a variety of first and second generation biofuels as well as electricity and hydrogen from RES, are considered an important means of coping with the environmental problems of transport. The objective of this paper is to investigate the “renewable fuels” from economic, energetic and ecological perspective within a dynamic framework until 2050.
