Alternative fuels are energy sources other than traditional fossil fuels – petroleum, coal and natural gas. While renewable resources may seem like an obvious solution to our energy needs, alternative fuels present a mix of benefits and challenges. Their adoption depends on technological advancements, infrastructure development, and policy support to address environmental, economic and logistical considerations. How do alternative fuels stack up against traditional fuels in terms of emissions, energy density, infrastructure and cost? Which fuels are most suitable for different applications from personal vehicles to commercial and industrial uses? Can we truly advance from our reliance on fossil fuels?
