The Middle East is a region where car is king and fuel is cheap, often leaving little reward to find more environmentally-friendly ways of moving around.
But this year, as demonstrations across the Middle East have pressed up the price of oil, the problem of discovering alternative sources of fuel has come into sharp focus.
In a region that has one of the highest carbon footprints worldwide, one business is benefiting from the growing pressure to find alternatives to oil.
