ISCC EU
Our EU certification scheme verifies compliance with the European Union’s legal requirements for sustainability and greenhouse gas emissions savings criteria for sustainable fuels, as well as the production of electricity, heating and cooling from biomass.
These requirements are set out in the Renewable Energy Directive (RED III) and apply to all EU Member States.
ISCC EU also covers additional ecological and social requirements that go beyond the legal requirements of RED III.

Alternative Feedstocks
The basis of every ISCC EU certification is the use of alternative feedstocks. These can be waste and residues, sustainably grown agricultural feedstocks, renewable electricity and sustainable forest biomass. Materials derived from alternative feedstocks can be classified into the four categories described below.
