ePURE: European renewable ethanol association

🌱 Enriching our land, 🍽️ sustaining our communities and🔌powering our future: Europe's renewable ethanol biorefineries are reshaping various sectors across the EU: paving the way for cleaner, budget-friendly energy; strengthening our food and feed supply chain; boosting our economy; and fostering a healthier environment. 🏭  👀 Take a peek at our infographic below to see their influence on Europe's future:

These new figures from the European car industry once again confirm the need for the EU to rely on more than just electrification to reduce emissions from road transport Europeans continue to buy hybrids and petrol cars that run on liquid fuel. Renewable #ethanol is the best way to reduce their GHG emissions

📨 JOINT LETTER: ePURE is among several associations in the sustainable mobility sector that have co-signed a joint letter to European Commissioner for Sustainable Transport and Tourism Apostolos Tzitzikostas, calling for a more technology-open approach to the Greening of Corporate Fleets initiative. "We are concerned to learn that the “Greening of Corporate Fleet” initiative will now take the form of a legislative proposal," the letter states. "We understand that the public consultation run by your Services in DG MOVE during the first half of this year, which many of the Network members participated in, produced inconclusive results as to the need for a regulatory intervention. There is no clearly identified market failure, nor a proven case that regulation will accelerate greening."

The EU's renewable ethanol biorefineries are silent game-changers. Beyond producing sustainable biofuels to cut emissions from cars, they're driving Europe's circular economy with the clever use of captured biogenic CO2: 🥤 Infusing your favourite drinks with bubbles. 📦 Creating food packaging solutions. 🌱 Nurturing greenhouse plant growth. ❄️ Producing dry ice for safe, efficient goods transit.

🌍 Recommendations on energy transition from our #100measures100days paper: The EU's decarbonisation journey demands a comprehensive, technology-neutral approach that embraces innovation and scalability. Key recommendations include: ✔️ Scaling flexible energy resources, storage, and smart grids to meet rising demand. ✔️Deploying robust certification systems for renewable and low-carbon gases and their derivatives. ✔️Supporting CCUS technologies with clear regulatory frameworks and infrastructure. ✔️Promoting sustainable, cost-efficient building renovations and heating solutions through a neighbourhood and district approach. ✔️Anchoring REPowerEU's ambitious hydronic heat pump targets into legislation. Collaborative efforts across all sectors will drive progress toward a sustainable and affordable future. 📑 Read the full recommendations for the first 100 days of the new European Commission in our paper here: https://lnkd.in/egKD54Wq

The EU’s definition of CO2-neutral fuels should include eFuels and biofuels, industry working group tells European Commission ePURE is among the members of the Working Group on Monitoring Methodologies, which on 11 December submitted to the European Commission a new report calling for a new definition for CO2-neutral fuels that covers all renewable fuels, including eFuels and biofuels, compliant with the sustainability criteria set in the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) Read the Working Group's press release and download the full report at the link in the comments 👇

How is bioethanol production helping EU agriculture? 🌾 💶 Sustainable biofuels made from EU feedstock have become a significant revenue source for farmers, driving job creation and long-term investment following the introduction of the EU biofuels policy. 🌽 Discover the close relationship between EU ethanol biorefineries and farming ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gE6G5-_S

📡 PRESS RELEASE: EU-Mercosur is a bad deal for Europe’s ethanol sector, for farmers, for food security, for strategic autonomy Even after more than five years of re-negotiation and tinkering, the EU-Mercosur agreement remains a bad deal for the EU renewable ethanol sector, for European farmers and for Europe’s drive for strategic industrial and agricultural autonomy The European Commission ignored repeated warnings from European bioethanol producers and decided to offer Mercosur countries a huge share of the EU’s ethanol market. In doing so, the EU is putting at risk European biorefineries producing food, feed, fuel, fertilizers and much more Read our full statement by clicking the link in the comments 👇 #FoodFeedFuel4Europe #Mercosur #EUMercosur #trade
