Energy: use of biofuels for road transport
2001/0265(COD) - 12/03/2003
The European Parliament adopted a resolution drafted by Maria del Pilar AYUSO GONZALEZ (EPP-ED, Spain) and made some amendments to the common position:
1) Pure vegetable oil is included as a biofuel and a definition is inserted;
2) Member states must report to the Commission on:
- the measures taken to promote the use of biofuels or other renewable fuels to replace diesel or petrol for transport purposes;
- the national resources allocated to the production of biomass for energy uses other than transport.�
