In Ireland, at the National Bioenergy Conference attendees were told that four biodiesel plants capable of producing 60 million liters annually were being mothballed due to cheap imports from outside the EU. Barry Caslin, Teagasc bioenergy specialist, told attendees that four plant-oil plants build without government grants or subsidies had been pushed out of production for the same reason.
Prof Gerry Boyle, Director of Teagasc (the Organization that put on the conference), stated, “The introduction of the Biofuel Obligation Scheme has seen most of Ireland’s indigenous liquid biofuel plants being mothballed as the majority of the biofuels required by the fuel majors to achieve a 4 per cent renewable volume of sales is being imported.”
