IDENTIFICATION OF THE CSTATE OF THE ART AND ATTRACTIVENESSOF TRANSPORT BIOFUELS SECTORS IN POLAND

Abstract

The current state of transport biofuels sectors in Poland was analysed - as well as the results of the research of theirattractiveness in the years 2007-2016 was showed. The national use of biofuels in transport is based on the mixtures of conventionalfuels and biocomponents. Therefore, the scope of the analysis included the entities producing bioethanol and methyl esters. Theproduction of these biocomponents takes place in 23 entities in Poland. The production of biocomponents and declared capacityof producers were increasing until 2016. The food raw materials are mainly used in production of the biocomponents in Poland.The EU policy striving to limit of that materials, it is a significant challenge in coming years. The attractiveness of currentlyexisting national transport biofuels sectors systematically decreasing, as the test results showed.
