Abstract

The regulation of biofuels is such an interface of energy law and agricultural law having regard to the aspects of climate protection, for which the significance of legal regulation is steadily increasing in these days. In 2020 the ratio of bioethanol and bioester mixed to the fuels increased to 10%. In this article, I undertake to collect the area’s most important sources of international, European Union and domestic regulations in order to get a clear picture about the current situation of the interface of energy law legislation and climate protection.
