Global Biofuel Demand Set to Grow by Nearly 70% as Food Prices Rise
High biofuels targets will exacerbate rising global food prices, as well as fertilisers shortages. The current scramble for biofuel feedstocks to combat high oil prices could see biofuel consumption globally rise by 30% this year and a staggering 70% by 2030, a new T&E study shows. This risks putting severe pressure on … [continued]

The EU Commission has proposed a plan to stockpile fertilisers in the wake of the conflict in the Middle East. Expanding crop-based biofuels production would put further strain on the EU’s fertiliser supplies. Despite European fuel policy now limiting their use, around half of biofuels consumed in the EU and UK still rely on … [continued]
