Current POME-based biofuels in EU fall within current production potential 

By / / Analysis, Biofuels, Publications, Renewable energy, Transport sector

According to studio Gear Up’s numerical analysis, the current volume of POME-biofuels deployed in the EU are in the range of current production volumes of POME residues. We advise to keep a close look on the future volumes of POME-based biofuels, given the upper limits of production. Strengthening the information position of renewable fuels supply chains with more frequent auditing and historical data of POME-oil production are needed.

Challenges and risks of low ILUC-risk certification for the biofuel sector

By / / Agriculture, Analysis, Biofuels, Climate change, Energy policy, EU, Indirect Land Use Change, Policy, Publications, Renewable fuels

With Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/807 the European Commission defined several options to certify low ILUC-risk feedstock for EU biofuels. Now that the criteria have been worked out and tested, it becomes clear that the approaches are highly complex, while the additional yields will likely be small. If low ILUC-risk certification
