Biofuels represent the most important
market for ISCC
Large certified feedstock basis already available (e.g.
palm, soy, canola, cereals, sugarcane, waste/residues)
Feedstock mainly used for biodiesel, bioethanol, HVO
and co-processing (estimate of up to 18 mill. tons ISCC
certified biofuels and bioliquids in 2018)
Major fuel producers are certified System Users of
the ISCC system

ISCC provides a guidance document for co-processing for ISCC
PLUS – Guidelines for biofuels in the European market rare
Relevant requirements from the EU for co-processing are
available in the Directive 652/2015. So far, requirements
are unspecific
In some Member States already requirements with respect
to co-processing exist. Examples are UK and Germany
How to calculate bio-yield and apply respective
implementation for GHG calculation and verification?
Different yields for fossil vs. bio-based feedstocks

details of GHG calculation methodology and subsequent
certification approach

ISCC provides a guidance document for co-processing and specific
requirements and verification points in the audit procedures/APS
Audit procedure with specific
co-processing requirements
Challenges:
• How to calculate bio-yield and apply respective implementation for
GHG calculation and verification?
• Different yields for fossil and bio-based feedstocks
Three approaches to determine bio-yield available under ISCC
PLUS:
• Energetic Determination
• Determination through efficiency/losses
• 12C or 14C analyses
Calculation of bio-output of simultaneously co-processing is based
on the bio-yield of the process
Determination of bio-yield is always site-specific
Determination of bio-yield either under day-to-day operational
conditions or, where not possible, under specific test conditions

“Novel Fuels” of non-biological origin have been introduced in the
RED II
Liquid or gaseous fuels that are produced from non-
renewable waste streams
(e.g. waste plastics, flue gas)
Delegated Act from the Commission required to specify
details regarding GHG methodology and certification
Liquid or gaseous fuels used for transport whose energy
content comes from renewable energy sources other than
biomass (e.g. Power-to-X such as hydrogen made from
renewable electricity)
ISCC is currently developing a guidance document for the
certification of RFNBOs
Delegated Act from the Commission required to specify
details regarding GHG methodology and certification
Renewable Liquid and Gaseous transport fuels
of non-biological origin (RFNBOs): Recycled Carbon Fuels (RCFs)
31 © ISCC System GmbH: For personal use only. Reproduction and distribution is prohibited. © ISCC System GmbH: For personal use only. Reproduction and distribution is prohibited.
The first Delegated Act for the RED II outlines requirements for iLUC-
risk biofuels
Low iLUC-risk biofuels:
Must comply “with the sustainability and greenhouse gas
emissions saving criteria set out in Article 29 of Directive
(EU) 2018/2001”
Must be “produced from additional feedstock obtained
through additionality measures”
“Additionality” can be achieved by cultivating unused
land and/or achieving yield increase
Waste, residues and forest biomass not classified as low
iLUC-risk
Delegated Act from the commission is necessary to
specify details of certification approach:
• Implementation and verification of iLUC fuels
• Smallholder integration
• GHG methodology and certification
The Delegated Act on low and high iLUC-risk biofuels was published by the European Commission on 13 March 2019

Severe consequences for proceeding
wrong GHG values
System Users, CBs and further market participants contact ISCC in
case of extraordinary GHG values (competitive markets)
Authorities approach ISCC if unusually low GHG values enter the
market
• E.g. quarterly GHG data from national authority
• RTFO UK plausibility of GHG information on proofs of sustainability
• European Commission
ISCC applies different measures to verify received requests:
• Contacts Certification Bodies to confirm the correctness of GHG values
• ISCC Integrity Audits, and verification of entire calculator
• Mailings, clarifications in System Updates to auditors and System Users
Consequences for proceeding wrong GHG values
• Withdrawal of certificate
• Suspension of companies and/or auditors depending on responsibility

Example negative emissions from land
use change
ISCC was approached by Federal Office for Agriculture and Food (BLE)
because a Nabisy PoS outlined a bonus for emissions from land use
change (negative value for “eL”)
Theoretically possible if conversion of non highly biodiverse
grassland, shrubland, or other land into a plantation increases carbon
stock of the area („net sequestration of carbon“)
ISCC identified all market participants of the relevant supply chain
and clarified, if correct application of requirements for calculation of eL
including the determination of the correct land category had taken
placed
Result: Violation of ISCC principle 1 could not be confirmed, but it was
found that the applied IPCC land category “other land” was not
correct. Consequence: withdrawal of certificate and suspension of
company
Learnings were integrated into ISCC training and communicated to
auditors: if negative GHG emission values for eL or for any other part of
the GHG calculation methodology are detected special attention must
be paid during the verification process!

Overview on shortcomings based on
key learnings: ISCC Integrity Audits
Many companies put much effort in improving GHG
performance by applying complex actual calculations, investing in
new technology and optimizing internal processes
Detected mistakes reflect complexity of indiviudual scenarios
Incorrect, inaccurate or non-transparent calculation of GHG
emissions:
• Incorrect emission factors and missing / outdated sources of emission factors
• Missing downstream combustion emissions of methanol /update respective EF
• Incorrect allocation of GHG emissions to main output product and to co-products
• Incorrect or inconsistent use of conversion factors
• Missing waste water treatment emissions
• Incorrect default value used
• No use of design data and unrealistic assumptions as basis for GHG calculations
• Calculation of processing emissions although not part of scope (e.g. at Collecting
Points)
• Negative values for emissions from cultivation / very low emissions for processing
• Use of software allowing only the visualization of inputs and final GHG results.
Calculation method and correctness of GHG calculations cannot be verified (e.g.
OFGEM)
• Adjusted GHG calculations not send to CB. CB must adjust audit procedure and send
to ISCC

05 Integrity Measures
37 © ISCC System GmbH: For personal use only. Reproduction and distribution is prohibited.
ISCC Integrity Program 2018: Overview and results
Non-conformities and sanctions:
• Withdrawal of five certificates
• Suspension of seven System Users for a period of 12-60
months
• Two „yellow cards“ and one “red card” have been issued to
CBs by ISCC
• Suspension of one auditor
ISCC analyzes the results from the Integrity Program and
derives adequate measures:
• Adaptations of existing ISCC system documents, audit
procedures, templates
• Development of new documents
• Communication in System Updates, CB meetings, ISCC
trainings, specific mailings to clarify requirements
66 independent on-site integrity audits have been conducted by ISCC in 2018
Increased additional focus on desk audits, e.g. to verify individual GHG calculations or LUC analyses that
are realized in addition to on-site audits
Growing importance of risk-based audits (e.g. in case of allegations of non-compliance or fraud)

Summary
RED is a success story with respect to GHG awareness
and measures to improve GHG performance of entire
supply chains
Biofuels as the only market with mandatory GHG
savings; non-regulated markets (food, feed, industrial
applications) show improvements only in snail speed
ISCC applies strict rules for calculating GHG and data
forwarding, supported by templates, documents and
procedures
Risks and fraud prevention is addressed with a resource
intensive Training and Integrity Program
ISCC supports the GHG calculation for innovative
feedstocks, fuels and processes
Further guidance needed from EC with regards to
implementation of GHG in co-processing supply chains,
low iLUC certification approaches, RFNBOs and recylced
carbon fuels
