Spanish Biodiesel Plants Cease Due to Economic Crisis

05.22.09

Unemployment in Spain rose to 17.4% in Q1 2009, and GDP dropped 1.9% from the previous quarter and lost 3% compared to 2008.

As a result, demand for diesel and biodiesel has dropped by 15% from 2008, and many biodiesel plants have halted production, according to market reports. The EU Commission expects Spain to suffer the longest from the economic crisis.
