Biofuel potential 'needs exploration'
A new study launched today aims to explore the potential of biofuels to help the UK meet its energy needs.
The Royal Society (RS), an independent academy promoting the natural and applied sciences, will focus their analysis on how scientific developments could address problems with biofuels currently on the market.
These include competition between food crops and fuel crops and issues with the efficiency of the production process.
If these are addressed then the RS believes biofuels could potentially provide more economic, low-carbon fuel for cars and other forms of transport.
