REDcert-EU for the Biofuel sector

For the sustainability certification of biomass, biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels is the REDcert-EU scheme available.

The former and no longer active REDcert-DE scheme was approved as a certification scheme on 20 July 2010, by the Federal Agency for Agriculture and Food (Bundesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Ernährung – BLE). Two years later the REDcert-EU scheme was recognized by the European Commission. Today, the REDcert-EU scheme is one of the leading certification schemes for sustainable biomass, biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels and can be used globally.The REDcert-EU scheme can be applied to all of the steps involved in the process starting with production and collection of input materials through to processing in oil mills and the production of biofuel, bioliquids and biomass fuels.
