    Abstract

    In this CEPS Commentary, CEPS Research Fellow Arno Behrens argues that the EU's target of increasing the share of biofuels in transport to 10% by the year 2020 is unjustified, and that the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions could be achieved more efficiently with other technologies and policies.
