Abstract
Transport biofuels produced from biomass can be substituted for petroleum fuels due to GHG reduction, sustainability and environmental friendly. Mandates and targets of biofuels are announced in the European union, United states and other countries worldwide and promoted by the government policies. This paper reviewed current status of the national biofuels policies and fuel specifications in transport sector. EU biofuels policy shifted and GHG emission reduction became the main focus of the policy. There are specification requirements for biofuels in the U.S. under the RFS2, but there are other polices as well that serve to promote the uptake of biofuels both at the federal and state level. Korea government has allowed 2.3% oxygen in gasoline to come from oxygenates, increased the biodiesel blend mandate from B2 to B2.5 effective from Jul. 31, 2015.
