At work.
I think I understand Onlinebiker's ideas.
One of their posts was correct. In that it is taking/costing 'Energy' to create the 'Eco-fuel' and hence, due to entropy in any system, you always have an efficiency loss from one to the next.
The issue I think Onlinebiker is missing is that there's a... difference in the energy types being discussed.
Solar, wind and hydro generate electrical energy which really can't be stored efficiently atm.
So, the idea I am guessing, is to use said electrical energy output to convert the 'waste' CO2 back into (The equivalent) of petrochemicals as a way to better/more efficiently store said energy.
I think I've got that part right?
Cheers.
