BIOFUELS<br />
The international market for biofuels is<br />
growing, driven largely by the introduction<br />
of new energy policies in Europe and the<br />
USA that call for more renewable, lowercarbon<br />
fuels for transport. Today, biofuels<br />
make up around 3% of the global road<br />
transport fuel mix. This could rise to 9% by<br />
2030. Sustainable biofuels are expected<br />
to play an increasingly important role in<br />
helping to meet customers’ fuel needs and<br />
reduce CO 2 emissions.<br />
<strong>Shell</strong> has a 30-year history of biofuel<br />
development and investment. Producing,<br />
buying, trading, storing, blending and<br />
distributing biofuels are now part of<br />
our usual business. We believe we are<br />
one of the world’s largest distributors of<br />
biofuels, and we continue to build capacity<br />
in conventional biofuels that meet our<br />
corporate and social responsibility criteria.
