External Events:
Roundtable on Setting up Common Definition for Sustainable Biofuels to Accelerate Biofuels Adoption", by the Global Biofuels Alliance (GBA)
Friday, 15 Nov 2024
10:45-12:15
Room: GBA Pavilion, Green Zone
The accelerated deployment of sustainable fuels hinges, in part, on establishing a common understanding of what constitutes ‘sustainability’ in the context of biofuels. The absence of consensus on these definitions poses a challenge. In this context, there is a need to critically assess all available pathways based on parameters such as performance, feedstock, technology, etc., especially considering the processing complexities involved in biofuels production. As we evaluate these approaches, it is crucial to define a clear path forward with inputs and buy-in from multiple stakeholders to set up a common definition for sustainable biofuels.
This session organized by the Global Biofuels Alliance will focus on topics such as:
- Defining and prioritizing effective sustainability metrics for biofuels
- Ensuring flexible and fair sustainability standards for diverse biofuels
- Industry partnership with GBA to develop sustainable biofuel definition
