Background information

Legal framework: Renewable Energy Directive (RED) 2009/28/EC RED sets the legal framework for the production and promotion of renewable energy: Establishment of mandatory targets for the national total share of energy from renewable resources binding throughout the European Union Each member state has to achieve at least 10% of their transport fuel consumption from renewable sources (bio-fuel) by 2020
According to the RED, biomass for final use as bio-fuel (or bio-electricity) must be produced in a sustainable way RED defines requirements for production of bio-fuels
4
Consequences for Market Players Either all mineral oil distributors blend only certified bio-fuels to their products and fulfill their obligated quotas or they have to pay high penalty taxes Consequence: The demand within the European Union (EU 27) for certified biomass will increase in the future. ISCC certified products will ‘open the doors’ for increased market opportunities within the European Union
5
RED requirements for the production of Biofuels Sustainability
Protection of areas with high conservation value Protection of areas with high carbon stock Protection of peat land Sustainable management of the farm
Greenhouse gas emission Reduction of GHG emissions: >35% compared to fossil fuels > 50% in 2017 and > 60% in 2018
Mass-balance system Traceability Traceability through all stages of the supply chain
