In Belgium, the EU has set a clear path toward 2030 targets and an ambitious 90% net GHG reduction by 2040, a critical piece of the puzzle is missing: long-term, binding regulatory certainty for road transport. The European Biodiesel Board (EBB), representing biodiesel (FAME& HVO) and bioSAF producers in the EU, calls on the ministers […]
In Belgium, the current scramble for biofuel feedstocks to combat high oil prices could see biofuel consumption globally rise by 30% this year and a staggering 70% by 2030, a new T&E study shows. This risks putting severe pressure on global food prices with vegetable oil prices already at a post-2022 peak. T&E warns governments […]

In Belgium, LanzaTech Global, Inc., a member of the FLITE (Fuel via Low carbon Integrated Technology from Ethanol) consortium, has selected North Sea Port, Ghent, Belgium as the permanent site for what will be Europe’s first commercial-scale Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) facility using the LanzaJet™ ATJ Process. LanzaTech has simultaneously confirmed the imminent […]
In Belgium, BDI-BioEnergy International and Ghent Renewables have successfully commissioned an industry-leading feedstock PreTreatment plant at North Sea Port in Ghent. The jointly realized facility marks a major milestone in advancing the processing of complex waste streams into high-quality raw feedstock for renewable fuels. The project highlights the strong partnership between BDI and Ghent Renewables, […]
In Belgium, OilPrice.com reports ISCC quietly tightened its biomethane rules after Christmas, aligning claims with physical reality, defensible ownership, and robust evidence able to withstand scrutiny—moving toward financial‑grade accounting. This evolution is necessary: without strict mass‑balance discipline, book‑and‑claim markets collapse as certificates grow valuable. By raising standards now, ISCC pressures the market to professionalize, benefiting […]
