I'm also sceptic of CO2 to gasoline for this reason. The only reason why petrol engine work at all is because gasoline contains a tremendous amount of energy, otherwise their efficiency sucks and the vast majority of this energy is wasted.
If we want to do the reverse operation, we don't have the luxury of just spending the wasted part though, we have to spend all of this energy.
- Tagbert 3y agoCO2 to fuel only works for special cases where batteries are infeasible due to weight of the batteries like a plane or weight of a vehicle like large industrial equipment, trains, and ships.
- realusername 3y agoYes that's basically it, it's a last resort option because the production uses way too much energy.
