ethanol as an alternative source of fuel
While not being as well versed as some of you in this field i do know Shell have been studying so called bio-fuels for some time now as a petrol additive, to envisage this in an aviation fuel though i think is still a little far away!
Although the rather controversial letters in flight recently could upset the balance that is currently in favour of the automobile! I would be interested if anyone has an idea how such a fuel would be regulated and maintained to a suitable quality?
As for using it as a subsitute for power production over fossil fuels there are 3 power stations all be it limited to around the 100Mw level constructed or being constructed in the UK and as i understand it a number in locations on the continent. Just an interest post really please don't tear me to pieces asking for information on my sources!
