🇬🇧 English

Sweden can continue giving tax reductions for pure and high-blended liquid biofuels from 2027 through 2032. The European Commission reviewed the measure under EU State aid rules and raised no objections. The scheme matters for fuel producers, biofuel suppliers, and companies using renewable fuels in Sweden. It is designed to support renewable energy and environmental protection by making certain biofuels more financially attractive than fossil fuel alternatives.
