	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/05/2023 answer text <p>The Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation (RTFO), is the main scheme in the UK supporting producers of low carbon transport fuels. It stimulates the production of low carbon fuels by setting volume targets for their supply in road transport and non-road mobile machinery, with targets rising from 14.22% in 2023, to 17.4% from 2032 onwards.</p><p> </p><p>The RTFO does not prescribe the volume in which renewable fuels must be supplied by sector. It provides flexibility to producers of low carbon fuels to determine where to deploy them and this may include logistics sectors. This enables targets to be met in a way that minimises cost to the consumer.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Durham answering member printed Mr Richard Holden question first answered 18/05/2023 10:25:08 answering member 4813 label Biography information for Mr Richard Holden
