While it would technically be possible for the European Union to meet its biofuel needs solely from domestic production, it is both likely and desirable that these needs will in fact be met through a combination of domestic EU production and imports from third countries.
Kuigi Euroopa Liidul oleks tehniliselt võimalik rahuldada oma biokütusevajadused üksnes liidusisesest toodangust, on samas tõenäoline ja ka soovitav, et need vajadused rahuldatakse tegelikult nii liidusisese toodangu kui ka kolmandatest riikidest imporditavate koguste kaudu.
