Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2017 Sep 4;56(37):11019-11022. doi: 10.1002/anie.201701633. Epub 2017 Jul 26.

Abstract

Since the reduction of greenhouse gases is the top priority of the Energy Transition, primary electricity should be converted to material energy carriers. In this way electricity can be "stored" and made accessible for other applications. This Essay focuses on the integration of mobility in the Energy Transition and the development of sustainable alternatives to electricity-based transportation.

Keywords: CO2 emissions; designer fuels; electric power train; energy transition; mobility.
