Norway - Exclusion of biodiesel from palm oil

The Norwegian Parliament has approved a list of legislative proposals to ban the public procurement and use of palm oil based biodiesel in order to implement the sustainability criteria of the European Union for biofuels. In addition, the fuel retail industry will be asked to supply only those biofuels that meet the EU's minimum GHG emission reduction targets. The final goal is to ban biodiesel from palm oil in domestic sales.
