Solar on Biofuel Land Powers EVs

A data‑driven policy proposition: the global area currently used for liquid biofuel crops could, if converted to photovoltaic arrays, generate enough electricity to power the world’s road vehicles (cars and trucks). The article quantifies land, solar yield and transport energy demand to show this is a material, not rhetorical, land‑use trade‑off. — This reframes transport decarbonisation and land‑use policy by turning biofuel production into an explicit opportunity cost calculation that affects food security, energy strategy, and climate targets.
