Sustainability of transport biofuels from a legal perspective
(2013) In International journal of environmental protection and policy 1(4). p.88-93- Abstract
- The article investigates the notion of transport biofuels, their possible advantages and disadvantages in
comparison to traditional fossil fuels, and sustainability requirements that need be stated to their quality and production
methods from a legal perspective. The research results indicate that the understanding of what makes the quality and
production of transport biofuels sustainable is still unclear. Sustainability parameters for biofuels will differ depending on the
types and purposes of biofuel production. There is no clearly agreed definition on what biofuels, and particularly sustainable
biofuels are. The task of law in this situation can be to contribute to the sustainable production... (More) - The article investigates the notion of transport biofuels, their possible advantages and disadvantages in

the traditional and newly emerging legal approaches and instruments, such as e.g. sustainability criteria for biofuels in
