Summary:
This report is the multi-year result of the work of the UFOP Expert Commission "Biofuels & Renewable Resources" oncurrent and future fields of action in biofuels, which are of great importance in view of climate change. The expert commission supports the UFOP in all matters relating to biofuel research, with particular emphasis on biofuels from rapeseed oil. The committee acts in an advisory capacity and is made up of experts from scientific research, the vehicle and petroleum industry and trade associations. The expert commission initiates research projects that are funded by UFOP or in cooperation with other institutions. The research reportsare published at www.ufop.de.
