EC consults public on biofuels
 
23 April 2007 -Following the Energy Package published on 10 January 2007, last Friday the European Commission presented a public consultation on "Biofuel issues in the new legislation on the promotion of renewable energy". Views of the public will be taken into account in the legislation package the Commission is presently drafting.  

Public authorities, businesses, non-governmental organisations and other interested parties are asked questions like:

  • How should a biofuel sustainability system be designed?
  • How should overall effects on land use be monitored?
  • How should the use of second-generation biofuels be encouraged?
  • What further action is needed to make it possible to achieve a 10% biofuel share?

This consultation complements earlier consultations on heating and cooling, biofuels and the recent consultation on administrative obstacles to the increased use of renewable energy in electricity generation.
