1 16 th ICABR / 126 th EAAE Ravello June 2012 Implications of Biofuel Support Policies in Europe - A Quantitative Analysis in an Open Economy María Blanco, Shailesh Shrestha, Marcel Adenaeuer and Arno Becker Contact: maria.blanco@upm.es

2 Outline EU biofuels support Biofuels modelling with CAPRI Scenario setting Main results Concluding remarks 2

3 EU biofuels support

4 Biofuels production and use have significantly grown during the last decade in the EU Growth in biofuels production and use mainly driven by public support EU Renewable Energy Directive Target of 10% renewable energy in total transport energy consumption by 2020 Implementation mechanisms at the MS level: quota obligations and tax exemptions for biofuels Blanco et al

5 MS level Total EU EU Biodiesel Production (1000 t) Germany Spain France Italy Austria Poland Other ME EU27 Source: CAPRI database (several raw sources)

6 MS level Total EU EU Ethanol Production (1000 t) Germany Spain France Italy United Kingdom Poland Other EM EU027 Source: CAPRI database (several raw sources)

7 The development of the biofuel sector raises a number of concerns Contribution to reduce dependence from fossil fuels? Contribution to reduce GHG emissions? Contribution to maintain agricultural income? Food-fuel linkages, in particular competition for land and impacts on food prices Blanco et al

8 Research questions What are the impacts of the current EU biofuels strategy on global biofuel and agricultural markets? How these impacts will change if the EU eliminate tariffs for biofuels imports? How these impacts will change in case of a faster development path of second generation technologies? 8

9 Biofuels modelling with CAPRI

10 What is CAPRI? Spatial partial equilibrium model of agricultural commodity markets at the global level Two interlinked modules: Global Spatial Multi-Commodity Model 77 countries in 40 trade blocks, 60 primary and secondary products, agricultural and trade policy measures Regional Programming Models 280 regions for EU27+Norway +Western Balkans, detailed representation of farming decisions and CAP measures Blanco et al

11 Biofuels module Global representation of biofuels markets (ethanol and biodiesel) Endogenous supply, demand and trade flows for biofuels For domestic production, two technological pathways (first generation and second generation biofuels) Blanco et al

12 Ethanol markets Blanco et al

13 Biodiesel markets Blanco et al

14 Scenario setting

15 Scenario setting Baseline 2020 Counterfactual scenarios Agricultural market developments (in line with DG- AGRI baseline 2010) 1. No EU biofuel support (no mandates and no tax exemptions) EU biofuels support (mandates and tax exemptions) 2. No EU biofuel tariffs (no EU tariffs for biofuel imports) Status quo for agricultural and trade policies 3. High second generation (faster development path for 2 nd gen. technologies) Blanco et al

16 Scenario results

17 Baseline results compared to last year data (EU27) Ethanol Biodiesel Prod. 1st gen. Prod. 2nd gen. Net imports Prod. 1st gen. Prod. 2nd gen. Net imports

25 Regional effects on agricultural income (%change) No EU biofuel support No EU biofuel tariffs High 2 nd generation

26 Demand balance (maize) Percentage change compared to baseline Baseline (1000 t) No biofuel support No biofuel tariffs High 2nd generation Total Demand Human Consumption Feed Processing Biofuels processing Other uses

27 Biofuels trade Percentage change compared to baseline Baseline (1000 t) No biofuel support No biofuel tariffs High 2nd generation Ethanol Ukraine USA Brazil Asian Tigers Asian South East Biodiesel USA Argentina Malaysia and Indonesia Asian South East Blanco et al

29 Concluding remarks Biofuels production and use will remain mainly driven by public support Strong links of biofuels to agricultural markets Development of second generation technologies would ease food-fuel links 29
