"It is the same reason that led us to maintain this philosophy within the framework of the Formula 1 regulations applicable from 2021. Furthermore, in 2014 we introduced the hybrid power unit in Formula 1, which was essential for the development of motorsport’s highest category. "This strategy is in line with initiatives started some years ago by the FIA with the creation of the Environmental Accreditation Programme, more recently with the FIA Environment and Sustainability Commission, and researches on renewable racing fuel. It is not only very encouraging for the future of motorsport, but it could also have strong benefits for society as a whole. The FIA welcomes this Formula 1 initiative.
“Our commitment to global environmental protection is crucial. Jean Todt, President of the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) said: These fuels can replace traditional fossil fuels and do not increase, on a net basis, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere when they are combusted. The actions we are putting in place from today will reduce our carbon footprint and ensure we are net zero carbon by 2030.” Carbon-neutral fuels provide an alternative power source for the transportation sector. By leveraging the immense talent, passion and drive for innovation held by all members of the F1 community, we hope to make a significant positive impact on the environment and communities in which we operate. “In launching F1’s first-ever sustainability strategy, we recognise the critical role that all organisations must play in tackling this global issue. We believe F1 can continue to be a leader for the auto industry and work with the energy and automotive sector to deliver the world’s first net zero carbon hybrid internal combustion engine that hugely reduces carbon emissions around the world. "Few people know that the current F1 hybrid power unit is the most efficient in the world, delivering more power using less fuel, and hence CO2, than any other car. From ground-breaking aerodynamics to improved brake designs, the progress led by F1 teams has benefitted hundreds of millions of cars on the road today. Renewable energy is energy from renewable resources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale.Renewable resources include sunlight, wind, the movement of water, and geothermal heat. “Over its 70-year history, F1 has pioneered numerous technologies and innovations that have positively contributed to society and helped to combat carbon emissions. Renewable energy sources, especially solar photovoltaic and wind power, are providing an increasing share of power capacity. Chase Carey, Chairman, and CEO of Formula 1, said:
