Burned: Germany will block Europe's gas and diesel ban unless synthetic fuel is allowed
Fox News
Germany's transport minister said the country will not support the European Union's ban on internal combustion engine cars unless carbon-neutral fuels are exempt.
"The EU Commission should propose regulation that allows combustion engines to be registered after 2035, if they can verifiably only be fueled with synthetic fuels," he told reporters in Berlin. Gary Gastelu is Fox News Digital's automotive editor.
Synthetic fuels are being developed that are created using water and carbon captured from the atmosphere, so they don't contribute any additional greenhouse gases when burned.
