According to International Energy Agency (IEA), global biofuel demand will expand by 35 000 MLPY or 20% over 2022-2027 in the main-case forecast. Renewable diesel and biojet fuel consumption growth are almost entirely in advanced economies. Policies designed to reduce GHG emissions are driving demand because these fuels can be produced with low GHG […]

The EU has set an ambitious goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transport by 90% by 2050, compared with 1990 levels. So far, however, it has proven difficult to achieve progress towards this goal. European Environment Agency (EEA) data show that transport is the only major economic sector in the EU where greenhouse gas emissions […]
