I found a very interesting study. I'm not a fan of biofuels, nor will I ever be, I think. And this study once again given me reason. Among the main reasons is that food does not play, but today I bring you one more. If you have a much more efficient field trackers planting soybeans or corn to bio-fuels. Just look at the chart to understand: indicates the number of miles a vehicle can travel per acre used.
The study has been cited in EV World, by Ken Regelson of the consulting Five Star The results are amazing and have been published by German magazine Photon International.

| Energy Source | Miles Driven / Year Per Acre |
| Solar Photovoltaics 2,250,000 | |
| 2,000,000 | |
| Wind | |
| Biodiesel (Algae) 370.000 | |
| Biodiesel (Palm Oil) 31.000 | |
| Biodiesel (Canola / Rape) 6.100 | |
| Biodiesel (Soybean) | |
| 2.400 Ethanol (Switchgrass ) 32.500 | |
| Ethanol (Corn) 18.000 |
Conclusion: The most efficient in terms of land used to move an electric car is getting electricity from the sun.
