The demand for energy is suspected to double in the next two decades yet the energy supply is gradually decreasing. This is where renewable and green energy take place, meaning to create energy especially for transportation fuels like diesel, gasoline and jet fuel as they will become critical as fossil fuel reserves deplete around the world.
Renewable energy sources and the process of converting it into energy has become huge talk lately. Rapid Thermal Process or pyrolysis technology which is used for converting biomass into energy is an important process in producing renewable transport fuels that would benefit the companies where it can economically produce the value-added products as well as utilizing the byproducts without having additional operational costs.
By using proprietary technology developed by refineries, bio-oil can be further processed to become green gasoline, diesel and jet fuels. Pyrolysis oil is a synthetic .. more»

Usually, public transport and car pooling is considered a green mode of transport, compared to private vehicles, although for some people a better definition of green transport is one that does not involve non-renewable energy.
Indeed the scope of green transport cannot be limited to electric vehicles and hybrid cars alone. It may also include walking, cycling and other forms of human-powered transport, green vehicles, solar energy transportation, wind energy transportation, water energy transportation, electric transportation, and other forms of renewable energy transportation or alternative energy transportation.
A transportation reform group called the Transportation Alternatives has inspired a green transportation hierarchy which rewards the low cost, space efficiency and zero environmental impact of cyclists and pedestrians. Trucks get priority over personal cars due to scarce curb side parking and for eliminating double-parking problems. The green transportation hierarchy include congestion pricing, the pricing .. more»
