Assessing the potential advanced alternative fuel volumes in Germany in 2030

This working paper assesses the potential for Germany to meet the transport sector targets set by the European Union's recast Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) using advanced, non-food-based fuels. Policies supporting advanced, non-food-based fuels can deliver substantial carbon savings —as much as 16 million tonnes of CO2-equivalents with high policy support, after taking into account indirect emissions.
