Biofuels are fuels produced from renewable resources and derived from biomass. Plant material and animal waste are two sources of biofuel and, unlike fossil fuels, biofuels are considered a renewable source of energy. 

The issues surrounding depleting fossil fuels are well known and there are many problems that could arise when we inevitably run out. Limiting the use of fossil fuels is one way to combat this, but raises the question of what we can use instead. 

Biofuels can be used in place of traditional fuels for vehicles and machines, replacing the need for oils, petrol and diesel. 

Bioethanol is a biofuel that can be made from plant materials and is a great replacement for petrol as it is more energy-efficient, resulting in higher performance and power. Replacing fuel with ethanol means we can cut fossil fuel consumption and use a much cleaner, much greener alternative in its place.

Crude oil is a fossil fuel that is used in the production of petrol and diesel, so finding a renewable alternative for these fuels is important in lowering our usage of fossil fuels in order to preserve resources. 

Ethanol is a fantastic option as it not only performs better as a fuel than petrol but is also a cleaner and more sustainable option. 

It not only burns cleaner than other fuel sources, but it also aids in the reduction of carbon dioxide in its creation. Made from plant matter, biomass absorbs carbon dioxide as it grows, meaning it is not only aiding in preserving fossil fuels but also helping with environmental issues surrounding increased carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. 

Even blending fuel with biofuel can help with the reduction of fossil fuel consumption. This also means that biofuels can be used without modifying the engines of vehicles already on the road, meaning it is an accessible alternative for everyone.
