What is BS EN 16214-1-Sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids about?
BS EN 16214 series covers sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids for energy applications -principles, criteria, indicators, and verifiers. BS EN 16214-1 is the first part of the series of documents that defines the terminology to be used in the field of sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids for energy applications.
BS EN 16214-1 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 BS EN 16214-1 does not cover the requirements in Directive 2018/EU/2001, the recast of the Renewable Energy Directive (referred to as RED II).
Who is BS EN 16214-1 -Sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids for?
BS EN 16214-1 on biofuels and bioliquids for energy applications is applicable to:
- Liquid Biofuels Industry
- Biofuels Automotive manufacturers
- Renewable electricity
- Thermal energy
- Combined heat and power (CHP) plants
Why should you use BS EN 16214-1 -Sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids?
Biofuels and bioliquids are carbon-neutral, cost-effective replacements for mineral oil-based heavy fuels, light fuels, and diesel that are obtained entirely from biogenic waste or residue sources.
ISO 14341 helps you standardize the classification of the production of biofuels and bioliquids for energy applications. Having a common point of reference for classification and sustainability criteria improves the efficient production of biofuels and bioliquids across the biofuels production Industry.
By adopting ISO 2026, you can produce biofuels and bioliquids for energy applications that meet quality guidelines and are produced according to the specified requirements. This helps you to build trust throughout the biofuels supply chain.
