Advancing Sustainable Fuel Alternatives for the Transportation Sector

Abstract

Reducing the environmental impacts of fossil fuels in transportation requires a transition to
sustainable fuel technologies. This paper examines a range of alternative fuels, including fossil
fuels, electric vehicles (EVs), biodiesel, hydrogen fuel cells, methanol, and natural gas vehicles,
presenting a comprehensive analysis of each fuel type’s current capabilities, benefits, and
limitations. Through an overview of findings from global energy bodies and recent research, the
study emphasizes the importance of infrastructure improvements and policy frameworks that
support a diversified energy portfolio, leading the way toward cleaner and more sustainable
transportation.
