By 2030, this has to increase to around 24% through further development and deployment of electric vehicles, advanced biofuels and other renewable and low carbon fuels as part of a holistic and integrated approach´ (p.8). Improving energy efficiency legislation is a further cornerstone. The criticism here is two fold.

Changes from the early 19 th century that led to the Industrial Revolution were based, in part, on the advanced in engineering that was fueled by advances in physics. Finally, physics can be used to calculate the amount of energy produced by the processing and burning of biofuel just as it has for fossil fuels.
