What role do biofuels play in the current situation?
Biofuels can help to lessen the pressure on the transport sector by offering an alternative to oil. According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), biofuels accounted for 1.8% of total transport fuel consumption in 2007. Biofuels are estimated to have met about a third of the increased demand for transport fuel in 2007.
