The Department for Transport (DfT) is a ministerial department of the UK Government responsible for national transport policy, regulation, and investment across road, rail, aviation, and maritime sectors. It sets safety, accessibility, and decarbonisation strategy and delivers infrastructure and services through its executive agencies and arm’s‑length bodies.
For the chemicals and fuels value chain, the DfT shapes UK fuel and emissions policy, including fuel quality and sustainability standards, the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation (RTFO), sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) mandates, and infrastructure planning for hydrogen and other alternative fuels. Through guidance, certification, and funding frameworks, it influences the development, scale‑up, and deployment of low‑carbon transport fuels and related technologies, affecting demand, compliance requirements, and supply chains for biofuels, e‑fuels, additives, lubricants, and other transport‑related chemicals in the UK.
