World Bank Urges Caution On Biofuel Policies

02.19.08

The World Bank has cautioned national governments to carefully assess economic, environmental, and social benefits of biofuels, and the potential to enhance energy security.

In its World Development Report for 2008, it said: “The challenge for developing country governments is to avoid supporting biofuels through distortionary incentives that might displace alternative activities with higher returns, and to implement regulations and devise certification system to reduce environmental risks.”
