The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Kennedy of Southwark on 2016-10-13.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what action they are taking to encourage local government, where possible, to use biodiesel made from waste food products.
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
The Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation has supported a strong market for sustainable biodiesel made from wastes through double rewards, and benefits all economic players with an interest in encouraging the use of sustainable biodiesel.
In addition buses that run on biodiesel are eligible for the Bus Service Operators Grant. Operators receive 34.57pence per litre of biodiesel used on their bus routes.
