The United States  –  though the 2005 Energy Policy Act – and the European Union – through the European Energy Policy – created incentives for expanding biofuel production and use.  On 25 May 2007, the German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF) and DaimlerChrysler convened a conference in Berlin on "Transatlantic Approaches to Biofuels".  R. Andreas Kraemer of Ecologic spoke on Assessing European and U.S. Policies.

The policy brief „European Union Policy on Bioenergy“ [pdf, 375 KB, English] by R. Andreas Kraemer and Stephanie Schlegel provides the background to EU policies in the field.
