Thank you for that question.
There are multiple buyers of biofuel. The policy is designed provincially and federally such that the obligated parties under the regulations are the suppliers: the producers and importers of gasoline and diesel. Those parties buy biofuels.
Also, because the modern biofuels such as biodiesel, renewable diesel and bioethanol can be used in a wide range of industries, the industries themselves oftentimes will buy fuels directly through their fuel supplier. That's helped by the compliance credit market that's in place in many federal and provincial policies.
They buy them because they can be cost-competitive. Bioethanol is cheaper than gasoline. Biodiesel and renewable diesel are very competitive. They reduce emissions, they have operational benefits, and they also help in terms of local air pollution and global air pollution. There are so many reasons why biofuels are a useful thing for Canadians to produce, to sell, to buy and, of course, to use.
