The European Commission decided on 10 June 2010 to encourage industry, governments and NGOs to set up certification schemes for all types of biofuels, including those imported into the EU. It laid down what the schemes must do to be recognised by the Commission. This shall help implement the EU's requirements that biofuels must deliver substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and should not come from forests, wetlands and nature protection areas. The rules for certification schemes are part of a set of guidelines explaining how the Renewable Energy Directive, coming into effect in December 2010, should be implemented. The package adopted on 10 June 2010 consists of two Communications and a Decision which should help businesses and Member States to implement the Renewable Energy Directive. The present document is the "Communication from the Commission on voluntary schemes and default values in the EU biofuels and bioliquids sustainability scheme".
