Bio-components can be counted twice if the residue is listed in Annex IX of Directive 2018\/2001. Land criteria do not apply to industrial residues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For agricultural residues, verification of soil quality management is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethanol:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethanol is typically accounted for in volume units, but mass balance should be conducted in mass units. For mass balance accounting, quantities expressed in volume units must be converted to mass units \u2013 tons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biodiesel:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Produced through the transesterification of oils with methanol. Methanol can be sourced from fossil or renewable sources. Regardless, 100% of biodiesel is always counted as biofuel. However, if methanol comes from fossil sources, the appropriate GHG emission factor (from Regulation 2022\/996) must be applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
