Biofuel Cities Reports & Recommendations - Who-is-Who-and-Where in the biofuel field
Introduction and aim
2
1. Introduction This “who-is-who-and-where” report was developed as part of the European Commission funded project, Biofuel Cities (www.biofuels-cities.eu), which provides a stakeholder platform for the application of biofuels. The purpose of Biofuel Cities is to develop a European Partnership that demonstrates the broad scale use of new and innovative biofuel technologies. Biofuel Cities covers the complete chain from feedstock to biofuels production, distribution and utilisation in vehicle fleets. The Biofuel Cities European Partnership aims to: (a) build a European Partnership in which biofuel end-users, suppliers, and those actors setting the frameworks for biofuel applications are invited to form new partnerships for projects and to engage in exchange and networking; (b) independently assess biofuel projects, both research & development and demonstration orientated projects, as well as local sustainable mobility policies, in order to guide industrial and commercial stakeholders, local governments, the European Commission and others on the implementation of biofuels and energy-efficient vehicles; (c) support biofuel stakeholders through information, events, tools and publications, as well as guidance on biofuel policies and applications.
2. Aim The aim of this report is to lists persons and organisations active in the field of biofuels for transport and, as a result, form a “who is who and where” in the field of biofuels for transport. Persons and organisations that are active in the field of biomass-to-heat, biomass-to-electricity or biofuels for stationary applications, are not listed. The report includes participants to the Biofuel Cities European Partnership - providers, researchers and end users as well - plus organisations and persons that are not participants of the partnership but who are clear and important stakeholders in the field of biofuels for transport.

Methodology
3. Methodology This is the fourth and final version of the “who-is-who-and-where” report. Data for this report was generated using the contact database of the website www.biofuel-cities.eu by exporting this database to an excel file and using only data for organisations and persons that answered “yes” to “Included in ‘who-is-who-and-where’ report”. There were 443 data records matching this condition. The actual database contains more data records. From these 443 records, incomplete records were removed. Also non-European records were removed because, due to their low number, these might give an unbalanced view of biofuel activities on other continents. The remaining records were judged on the number of organisation types given. If this number of organisation types was larger than four then the least relevant organisation types for that organisation were removed. The results in chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7 are given per target group and organisation type, as defined in the Biofuel Cities background document. These target groups and organisation types are listed in Table 1. Chapter 4 lists persons and organisations that are Feedstock producers and providers, Chapter 5 lists persons and organisations that are Biofuel producers and distributors, Chapter 6 lists persons and organisations that are End-users or are part of the automotive industry, and Chapter 7 lists persons and organisations that are Biofuel framework stakeholders. The lists in each of these chapters will give the organisation, person, a description of the organisation, an e-mail address and a website. Table 1: Target groups and organisation types Target group
