Europe Allows ICE Cars with Biofuels and E-Fuels Beyond 2035
TL;DR Summary
The European Union has decided to step back from its plan to ban internal-combustion automobile engines by 2035 as part of its goal to reach net-zero carbon-dioxide emissions by 2050. The ban was formulated without a clear replacement for conventional engines, and battery technologies do not yet exist to replace fossil fuels in driving distance or ease of refueling. EVs also require subsidies for consumers and production across the supply chain to be profitable.
