    6. Conclusion on zero and low-carbon fuels

    The principles of scientific analysis to be favored for the development of a sustainable and virtuous energy and climate model are common to all fields dedicated to the production and use of low-carbon energy in internal combustion engines. The main lines of action over the long term are summarized below.

    To remember

    • Contemporary environmental thermodynamic analysis can be used to classify the eco-efficiency performance of a production unit.

    • This concept makes an innovative contribution to understanding and implementing the expected evolution of the fuel energy mix in internal combustion engines.

    • The same applies to Energy Life Cycle Assessment (ELCA) and the value of processes, which differs from the above-mentioned thermodynamic...
