| Objectives | The project objectives are to: * assess the energy requirements for, and implications of, operating the UK road transport fleet with renewably produced hydrogen or liquid biofuels, to assist with meeting future greenhouse gas emission reductions; and * assess the potential for producing renewable hydrogen or liquid biofuels from indigenous resources in the UK. | |
| Abstract | This project will carry out a technical analysis to inform the Governments assessment of the overall energy implications of the large scale use of renewable hydrogen and biofuels to 2050. This will be based on modelling of both future energy demand and supply based on high and low travel demand scenarios and the potential availability of renewable resources | |
