This project, funded by the European Commission under the IEE programme, intends to develop a supportive framework for encouraging the growth of local markets for biofuels as a low carbon fuel for Local Authorities and other public sector transport fleets across the EU.

Bio-NETT will enable and support attitudinal change and capacity building within public sector organisations, the agricultural sector (including young farmers and rural women) and the wider supply chain. This will help them to recognise the benefits of sustainable practices around the theme of the development and use of biofuels.

Ultimately the project seeks to increase the supply and demand of liquid biofuels by creating a more integrated and cohesive market structure, linking suppliers and users through regional networking in both the urban and rural context.
