T-2D4-1 - Shift to biofuel for mobile machinery

Background

IPCC WG3 definition: TBD.

Fossil fuels used for mobile machinery are being replaced by sustainably produced biofuels. The potential for this is great, as there are biodiesel that can be used in diesel engines without any modifications being necessary. Biodiesel is also blended into regular diesel to reduce its climate impact.
