The EI has taken a leading role in researching the impacts that biofuels may have in the distribution chain, with various EI technical committees overseeing the development of applicable guidance for distribution and marketing oeprations, environmental analysis and assessing microbial growth.
To achieve the targets set by the European Directive 2003/30/EC, which promotes the use of biofuels or other renewable fuels to replace part of the diesel and petrol sold in EC Member States, biofuels may be made available in a number of forms, such as pure or high concentration biofuels, or as biofuels blended in mineral oil derivations in accordance with the appropriate existing European norms. In order to ensure fuel quality where biofuels are used, the EI has also lead the development of appropriate biofuel quality test methods.
