For this purpose, the method of quantitative and qualitative analysis of data about the area, production, consumption, import and export was used. Unlike the United States or Brazil, the production of bioethanol in Romania and in the European Union remains an under-exploited branch despite the valuable potential of this renewable energy source. This can also be explained by the rather low demand for such a fuel.
