European waste-based biofuel industry concerned about push for SAF

June 18, 2020 |

In Belgium, Euractiv reports that the waste-based biofuel industry is concerned about the European Commission’s promotion of sustainable aviation fuels, saying that measures such as an aviation blending mandate would have negative implications for their road-based fuels businesses. The policies currently being drafted could potentially look to have waste feedstocks diverted from road-based biofuels to aviation under such a scenario that would also impede efforts to decarbonize road transport. The industry recently wrote a letter to three EU Commissioners, including Vice-President Frans Timmermans, voicing these and other concerns.
