# Directive (EU) 2018/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources (recast) (Text with EEA relevance), Division D: DISAGGREGATED DEFAULT VALUES FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOLIQUIDS

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Disaggregated default values for cultivation: ‘eec’ as defined in Part C of this Annex, including soil N2O emissions
Applies only to biofuels produced from animal by-products classified as category 1 and 2 material in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1069/2009, for which emissions related to hygenisation as part of the rendering are not considered.

Disaggregated default values for transport and distribution of final fuel only. These are already included in the table of ‘transport and distribution emissions etd’ as defined in Part C of this Annex, but the following values are useful if an economic operator wishes to declare actual transport emissions for crops or oil transport only).
Default values for processes using CHP are valid only if all the process heat is supplied by CHP.
