Biofuels Standards and Technologies Task Force: in partnership with ISO

In the past few years there have been important advances in the field of alternative transportation fuels, primarily ethanol and biodiesel. Both the automobile industry and the biodiesel producers have played a major role in developing the technical and normative prerequisites.

The challenge is to develop biofuels which do not compete with the food chain, which are sustainable, and for which the carbon footprint is known and a net gain.  The main objective of the Task Force will be to identify and evaluate the leading production technologies and the main barriers to an accelerated development and deployment of biofuels standards and technologies worldwide and formulate recommendations for removal of these barriers.

Further details will be posted once the Committee has held initial meetings.
