Since the nineties, the production of biodiesel has increased considerably worldwide. The motivation for this trend developed very differently with a view to the globally important resource production regions. Biofuels, such as biodiesel, are also playing a role regionally within the context of the growing challenge of a global climate change policy. The contribution is an evaluation of the situation and it demonstrates the limits of the development based on different aspects.
Résumé
Depuis les années 1990, la production de biodiesel a considérablement augmenté dans le monde entier. Les motifs de cette tendance ont évolué très différemment selon les régions de production de ressources d’importance mondiale. Les biocarburants, tels que le biodiesel, jouent également un rôle régional dans le contexte du défi croissant d’une politique mondiale de lutte contre le changement climatique. Cette contribution est une évaluation de la situation et montre les limites du développement en fonction des différents aspects.
