Molasses can be added if used to produce ethanol. You can add syrup, vinasse and filter cake to a Bonsucro EU RED scope if they are used to produce a product covered by the EU RED legislation. Members can proactively request EU RED requirements to cover all their productions. It must be noted though that […]
The EU indicator 6.7 refers to the carry over (non-EU can be carried over even if there is no equivalent physical volumes in stock; but EU can only be carried over if there is the equivalent volume in physical stock. Indicator 6.8 mentions that EU volumes are valid for 1 year; non-EU RED products are […]
EU RED II requirements do not allow this.
Certified members have to comply with the new calculation requirements from 1 July 2021. Bonsucro does not provide the tool to do the actual calculation of GHG emission savings, each member has to update their own calculation methodology (the Bonsucro calculator can only be used for the use of default value and land use change […]
Bonsucro doesn’t provide a tool to perform actual calculation adapted to EU RED II.
For Bonsucro certified ethanol (not EU), the EU RED II calculation is not required.
he greenhouse gas emission savings from the use of biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels taken into account for the purposes referred to in paragraph 1 shall be: (a) at least 50% for biofuels (GHG < 47 g CO2/MJ), biogas consumed in the transport sector, and bioliquids produced in installations in operation on or before 5 […]
The default comparative value for fossil fuel is now 94 g CO2eq/MJ
You should only use the calculator if you use the default value – with or without land use change emissions: Take the result display on the tab “BONSUCRO EU RED Output” cell C15 Add 4.6 Note the total – this is the default value plus any land use change emissions calculate: [94 (new fossil fuel […]
No, therefore if you wish to use the Bonsucro calculator to report your GHG emission savings you must add 4.6 gCO2/MJ to the final result.
