EU Faces Biofuels Stalemate
02.26.08
The EU is facing a possible stalemate over implementation of biofuels sustainability standards.
The European Parliament wants sustainability criteria to be included in the EU Fuel Quality Directive, while the European Commission said that the criteria is already included in its January 23rd directive on renewables, which mandated 10% of all transport fuel consumption in the EU be sourced from biofuels by 2020.
The EU has agreed with the European Commission that biofuels must deliver a life-cycle CO2 savings of 35 percent to count towards the 10 percent target.
