Liquid biotransport fuels; supply, consumption and blending, ‘03-’18

This table provides data on liquid biotransport fuels. This concerns the supply and consumption of biofuels and the amount of biofuels mixed in ordinary petrol and diesel. There are also data on the production capacity of biofuels. The data are available both for the total of biofuels and for the two types of biofuels used in road traffic and mobile equipment, namely biofuel and biodiesel. The supply of biofuels is equal to the sum of production, the import balance (net imports) and the changes in stocks of biofuels. In the case of the import balance and stock changes, a distinction is made in pure and blended biofuels. Consumption is equated to deliveries from the oil companies to pumping stations in the Netherlands. These are for the most part biofuels that are blended in ordinary diesel and petrol and are therefore no longer recognizable as biofuel. The consumption is displayed in four ways: in millions of kilos, millions of liters, TeraJoules and as the energy-based bio-share in the total of petrol and diesel consumed in road traffic. Data available from: 2003 to 2018. Status of the figures: The data is final. Changes per April: None, this table has been discontinued. When will there be new figures: No longer applicable. This table is followed up by the table "biotransport fuels; supply, consumption and incorporation’. See paragraph 3.
