Range extender versus standard gas engine - what can be omitted?

Exactly. Bio fuels have been completely discredited as a solution mainly because of land use. We’d decimate the planet if we went that way. There are certain crops such as camelina that are more interesting as they can grow on scrap land and might not displace food crops or lead to deforestation, but it’s early days for that and research funding is likely to get cut.

Methanol is the future. Its made from carbon capture technology. Any car today can ruN on it. Its carBon. Who said anything about bio fuels or ethanol?

The real issue with bio fuels is infrastructure. There are many that can't travel through current petroleum pipelines, making distribution too much of a challenge to offset widespread gains at this time.
