As mentioned in another forum, bio-fuel may be a great idea provided it has the same or similar calorific value to JetA1.
If not, in some applications simply loading enough fuel and still staying under MTOW may prove a challenge and loading (say) 10% more - and a bit to carry it - may partially defeat the purpose……..but I'm sure they've thought of that!
