BP biofuels' data criticised

BP was criticised by the Renewable Fuels Agency in its annual report today for not giving enough information on the sustainability of the bio­fuels it is selling on the forecourt. BP said it had met at least one of the three targets set by the monitoring organisation. But the RFA complained that its data was "not properly assured" for this to be confirmed. BP, which was unavailable for comment, did better than Chevron, Murco and Topaz who allegedly missed all the environmental qualifying standards set by the RFA to measure the biofuels they mixed with petrol and diesel to make them "greener" at the pump. Greenergy, part-owned by Tesco, and ConocoPhillips were praised by the RFA.
