The French government has decided to go beyond European directives by laying down ambitious objectives of incorporation of biofuels into fuels:
The French plan of biofuels development
laying down ambitious objectives of incorporation of biofuels into fuels:
5,75% (in energy value) in 2008, 7% in 2010 and 10% by 2015.
In order to reach this target, a great industrial plan has been engaged

IAR - Competitiveness Cluster with a Worldwide Vocation
A flexible pilot plant (multi raw materials) in order to avoid a priori choices and to be able to take advantage of future development of lignocellulosic biomass production.
A competitive process through innovations and optimization of each step (cellulose extraction, hydrolysis and fermentation processes best
suited to each raw material configuration).
