The Government wants three regional producer hubs to refine and distribute biofuels, of which two are already established. 'Teesside leads the way, followed by Humberside," says NE Biofuels consortium spokesman, farmer John Seymour.
By 2010, these will have created 1,C00 jobs not including traffic for bulk transport and supply chains for raw materials are being established. Biodiesel requires oil seed rape; bioethanol needs wheat.
Home-produced biofuels provide a ready market for the one-million-tonne grain surplus grown within 80km of the existing plants, which would otherwise be exported and dumped into Third World economies. The Government wants the other site to be in the South-East the Thames Gateway, with equal access from Kent and Essex, is one possibility.
