  1. “efficient and requires 45 times less land than traditional soybean-based biodiesel production.”

  2. > the electro-biodiesel process can convert 4.5% of solar energy to lipids when a solar panel produces electricity to drive electrocatalysis, much higher than the natural photosynthetic process.

    We already have an electrical process that is 20+% efficient at converting solar energy into electricity which can almost directly power a car.
