For years we have heard that oil reserves are dwindling and that it is important to reduce fuel consumption. That’s partly why the government is doing everything it can to encourage motorists to go all-electric, and why it doesn’t want to reduce gasoline taxes and diesel. In fact, according to his official explanations, he refuses to encourage drivers to use fossil fuels on a large scale. Fortunately, there are more and more alternatives to be less dependent on oil.

Europe has agreed to end the heat engine by 2035. However, the fuel tax is an important source of revenue for the French state. https://t.co/M17WH4kOC3

Innovative solution

Obviously, we’re thinking electric, but also E85, which is 85% ethanol and therefore much less gasoline. But that’s not all, because a group of researchers also found an innovative and very smart solution to create a fuel that pollutes less, but is also less expensive. For this, aluminum is used, which can contain a large amount of energy. In fact, a cubic meter of this material can hold not less than 23 MWh, twice as much as diesel. The latter comes from the electricity consumed during the melting and oxidation process.

Cleaner fuel

Therefore, this fuel would be more efficient and much cleaner. Actually, every year million tons of aluminum is thrown away when it can be recycled and reused as fuel. In addition, the price at the gas station is said to be lower than standard diesel fuel, which apparently depends on the price of oil, which has been rising for several months due to production cuts.
