As governments pursue policies to reduce the carbon-footprint of transport fuels, participants in this workshop, held on December 2, 2015, explored facets of the complex questions of substituting fossil-based liquid fuels with alternative fuels, including:
- Outlook for conventional liquid fuels demand
- What policies are best suited to promoting alternative biofuels?
- Do policies promoting biofuels and various technologies such as CTL/GTL make sense in a low oil price environment?
- Will cheap natural gas lead to a greater role for LNG in replacing conventional liquid fuels?
- What is the role and the effectiveness of policy in promoting new fuels/technologies?
