Table 5 ‘FlexiFuel’ value chain 2050 in small steps scenario

From: Participatory and prospective value network analysis: supporting transition towards biofuels in Finnish road transport

Actors

Value generation

(What?)

Prerequisites for value generation

(By what means?)

Supporting activities

Consumer

Transport km

Suitable vehicles

100 % ethanol cars consume more fuel than“fossil” cars (10 l / 100 km)

Support: transport km cannot be too expensive

Vehicle manufacturer

FFV-vehicles

Manufacturing FFV vehicles should be profitable

EU subsidies needed (today car manufacturers do not benefit from producing bioenergy vehicles)

Distributor

Distribution

Service stations should have biofuel-suitable equipment

Service station renovations (100 % biofuels)

Logistics

Distribution

Own tanks for 100 % biofuel

 

Industrial waste flows

Waste refining (biorefinery)

Industrial waste

Neutral regulation (markets decide how “waste” is utilised)

Other industrial manufacturing

“Main product”

Enough production, volume
