German researchers have unveiled evidence suggesting that EU claims, according to which locally-produced rapeseed biodiesel cut back at least 38% of greenhouse gases (GHG) compared with fossil fuels, are unfounded.
Two experts at Jena’s Schiller University in eastern Germany used the same calculation system as that applied by the European Commission, but found that in eight out of 12 scenarios rapeseed biodiesel failed to meet the 35% GHG savings level or threshold stipulated by the 2009 renewable energy directive, and normally falls below 30%.
The findings by academics Gernot Pehnelt and Christoph Vietze come as the rapeseed harvest is in full swing in producing countries, such as France and Germany – and prices for the feedstock are increasing.
Biofuel use is increasing in attempt to cut emissions
They also coincide with new proposals to cut carbon emissions from new cars to 95 grams per kilometre – partly by relying more extensively on blending biofuels with conventional petrol and diesel. Civil and military aviation is also stepping up the experimental use of biofuels in jet engines.
The German experts used publicly available data for their research, which they claimed is more comprehensive than other independent analysis, but said their investigations had been hampered by the EU’s refusal to release all its data. Requests for information from the Joint Research Centre went unanswered, they said.
