Introduction
Directive 2009/28/EC [1] of the European Commission on the promotion of the use of energy from
renewable sources, referred to as the Renewable Energy Directive (RED), incorporates an advanced
binding sustainability scheme for biofuels and bioliquids for the European market. The RED contains
binding sustainability criteria to greenhouse gas savings, land with high biodiversity value, land with
high carbon stock and agro-environmental practices. Several articles in the RED present requirements
to European Member States and to economic operators in Europe. Non-EU countries may have different
requirements and criteria on, for instance, the GHG emission reduction set-off.
The sustainability criteria are also mandated in Directive 98/70/EC [15] relating to the quality of petrol
and diesel fuels, via the amending Directive 2009/30/EC [2] (as regards the specification of petrol,
diesel and gas-oil and introducing a mechanism to monitor and reduce greenhouse gas emissions).
Directive 98/70/EC is referred to as the Fuels Quality Directive (FQD).
!Directive 2015/1513 [3], referred to as the ILUC Directive, amends both the RED and the FQD."
In May 2009, the European Commission requested CEN to initiate work on standard(s) on:
— the implementation, by economic operators, of the mass balance method of custody chain
management;
— the provision, by economic operators, of evidence that the production of raw material has not
interfered with nature protection purposes, that the harvesting of raw material is necessary to
preserve grassland's grassland status, and that the cultivation and harvesting of raw material does
not involve drainage of previously undrained soil;
— the auditing, by Member States and by voluntary schemes of information submitted by economic
operators.
Both the EC and CEN agreed that these may play a role in the implementation of the EU biofuel and
bioliquid sustainability scheme. In the Communication from the Commission on the practical
implementation of the EU biofuels and bioliquids sustainability scheme and on counting rules for
biofuels (2010/C 160/02, [27]), awareness of the CEN work is indicated.
It is widely accepted that sustainability at large encompasses environmental, social and economic
aspects. The European Directives make mandatory the compliance of several sustainability criteria for
biofuels and bioliquids. This European Standard has been developed with the aim to assist EU Member
States and economic operators with the implementation of EU biofuel and bioliquids sustainability
requirements mandated by the European Directives. This European Standard is limited to certain
aspects relevant for a sustainability assessment of biomass produced for energy applications. Therefore
compliance with this standard or parts thereof alone does not substantiate claims of the biomass being
produced sustainably.
Where applicable, the parts of this standard contain at the end an annex that informs the user of the link
between the requirements in the European Directive and the requirements in the CEN Standard.
1 Scope
This European Standard defines the terminology to be used in the field of sustainability criteria for the
production of biofuels and bioliquids for energy applications. !This document specifically considers
some relevant terms and definitions used in the European Commission Directive 2009/28/EC [1],
referred to as Renewable Energy Directive (RED), and in the European Commission Directive
2009/30/EC [2] referred to as Fuel Quality Directive (FQD), both amended by European Parliament and
Council Directive 2015/1513, referred to as the ILUC Directive [3], or in other European regulations.
NOTE This edition of the standard does not cover the requirements in Directive 2018/EU/2001, the recast of
the Renewable Energy Directive (referred to as RED II)."
