A proposal from the EPA for 2023-2025 may result in wider production and use of ethanol, but it also may help utilities produce cleaner energy for EVs.

Researchers found that coffee-fed algae generated "enhanced biodiesel that produces minimal emissions and good engine performance." And it might be easier to commercialize than some other means of feedstock production.

Mazda's varied vision of the future includes EVs, hybrids, and a Skyactiv-X six—but no diesel for the U.S. We consider why that didn't work out.

Keeping internal combustion alive through synthetic fuels with a lower carbon footprint is not a better solution than batteries, T&E argues.

Toyota sees potential in hydrogen internal-combustion engines as part of a future racing program—perhaps to boost interest in its plans for a hydrogen economy.

Porsche is among the automakers hoping to find a way to keep internal combustion alive as a niche, with a sustainable new twist at the fuel-making level.

Illegal delete kits and tampering with emissions equipment is so common that is creates more noncompliant vehicles than the VW diesel scandal, a new EPA report suggests.

Concern over an ethanol downturn, possibly exaggerated by EVs, has both campaigns—and Congress—pandering to the Corn Belt.
