When can we expect agreed standards for biofuels?
The UK Government is working with the European Commission, other EU Member States and other international bodies to develop comprehensive, verifiable and robust environmental standards for biofuels. We are working to make this happen as soon as possible, but we anticipate the process will not be complete before April 2008. That is why we are consulting on a system of sustainability reporting and indicative targets for biofuels as an interim measure to put environmental concerns at the heart of the RTFO from the start.
