    I honestly don’t understand why everybody talks about energy efficiency like it’s a problem to net zero. It’s not.

    Do you guys mean that, because efuel is energy inefficient, it is net-positive? That’s wrong.

    And therefore my point stands. I’ve been reiterating this logic like 10x already in this post, but somehow there will be always another reply with the same flaw.

      It’s simple. We can go that way and effectively spend double the energy to drive a distance. I don’t think it’s exactly double but from 40% efficiency to 80% is the engine efficiency. So the number is just a simplification.

      Reducing energy use by 50% would mean less energy having to come from other sources. Which aren’t necessarily green today.

      Both solutions are improvements, but again, why go for the less efficient one when electricity is better?

        Please stop talking about efficiency. It has nothing to do with net zero, nor with my point. If you don’t, I’ll treat you as someone purposefully misleading the discussion.

        Honestly, are you guys payed by the lobbyists? Or are you guys copying and pasting some article downplaying efuels?

        I can’t find any other explanation on why you guys all fixate on efficiency although that doesn’t affect the net zero CO2 emission from efuels.

        And I have explained this like 100 times and somehow it always gets ignored, as if you people are doing strategic propaganda.
