Netherlands, Brazil to Cooperate on Biofuels

On April 11, the Netherlands and Brazil signed an agreement to share knowledge about the production and transport of biofuels during a state visit by Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to The Hague.The Netherlands sees itself as a potentially key transit point to transport Brazilian ethanol biofuels to rest of the EU countries. The EU has committed itself to increase its renewable energy use by 20% by 2020, compared to 1990 levels, with biofuels to make up 10% of all transport fuels used by then.
