About 10 years ago there was a big campaign and a lot of shouting about growing plants on a huge piece of land for manufacturing biofuel not too far from me near the Almeria race track near Tabernas. I believe that a fair bit of EU money was thrown at the idea but like a lot of things in Spain it came to nothing. Just like the HS railway line to Almeria that has been started and mothballed just up the road again using EU money ! I haven't looked into the pros & cons of biofuels and I wonder what the "experts" on here have to say
