Mid-term Report

As an effort to reduce dependency on imported fossil fuels and tackle global warming, the European Commission has recognised the need to promote renewable energy exploitation, sustainable development and security of supply. As part of the Renewable Energy road Map, EU has established a binding target of 20% for renewable energy’s share of energy consumption by 2020 and a target of 10% share of renewable energy in the transport sector. Under this picture, biodiesel fuel comes into the market as one of the possible actors to achieve this goal. This paper aims to analyse the market opportunity for future investors on biodiesel in Sweden based on a system approach towards a biodiesel system optimization.
