Household electricity three times more expensive than upcoming 'eco-friendly' aviation e-fuels, study reveals

Why Energy and Environmental Policy Matters More Than You Think

“Going green” has essentially become inescapable. Place an order on Amazon, and a “carbon-friendly” delivery option will be suggested. Buy an item from Etsy, and they’ll let you know that they “offset carbon emissions from every delivery.” Buy an airplane ticket, and you will be told about the flight’s carbon footprint. Go onto the Uber app, and you’ll see an estimate of how much CO2 you saved from being emitted. Even the arts cannot escape bein…

Electricity for e-aircraft fuel could get favorable tax rates, while households get high electricity bills. The energy transition needs more justice, a researcher warns.
