UK reopened crop-based biofuel debate following trip to US corn belt
In the UK, the Financial Times newspaper reports that following a visit by UK civil servants to the US’s corn belt to visit ethanol producers last October, the government reopened in December its previous ban on crop-based biofuels. The current UK policy is meant to support waste-based biofuels and efuels but if following the results of last December’s call for evidence, crop-based biofuels are permitted for use in sustainable aviation fuel, analysts expect US SAF producers to benefit over UK producers due to the price differential.
