Alternative Fuel Engineering - The recent Ukraine Russia war has seen oil prices increase by almost 200 %. This has severely dented
the common man’s pocket because everything has become expensive. Because of rising fuel prices, UAE inflation has risen from 2.3 %
to 4.3% currently.

1. What are the different types of alternative fuels to petrol and diesel?
2. Why would these alternate fuels be less expensive?
3. Why would these fuel types be greener and help in carbon offsetting?
4. How can alternative fuel help reduce inflation in UAE?

The different types of alternative fuels to petrol and diesel are;

  • Biodiesel
  • Bio-alcohol (methanol, ethanol, butane),
  • Refuse-derived fuel,
  • Chemically stored electricity (batteries and fuel cells),
  • Hydrogen,
  • Non-fossil methane,
  • Non-fossil natural gas,
  • Vegetable oil, Propane etc.

Why would these alternate fuels be less expensive?

Renewable energy sources follow learning curves or Wright's Law, which states that with every doubling of installed capacity, they become a constant proportion cheaper.

As a result, the growing use of clean energy has reduced the cost of electricity generated by new renewable power plants.

Why would these fuel types be greener and help in carbon offsetting?

Carbon offsets allow individuals and businesses to minimize their carbon impact.

Carbon offsets enable carbon dioxide (a major greenhouse gas) to be removed from the atmosphere or lowered in another region of the world.

How can alternative fuel help reduce inflation in UAE?

They can help because a lot of the costs of operation or production in UAE are associated with the use of fossil fuel.

Adopting cleaner energy sources will thus ensure that those costs are abated hence, reducing inflation.
