Article 6 Auditing and verification requirements for certification of low indirect land-use change-risk biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels
United Kingdom
For the purpose of certifying low indirect land-use change-risk biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels, economic operators shall:
submit reliable information substantiating their claims ensuring that all requirements set out in Articles 4 and 5 have been duly fulfilled;
arrange for an adequate standard of independent auditing of the information submitted and an adequate level of transparency reflecting the need for public scrutiny of the auditing approach; and
provide evidence that audits are conducted.
The auditing shall verify that information submitted by economic operators is accurate, reliable and protected against fraud.
In order to demonstrate that a consignment is to be considered as a low indirect land-use change-risk biofuel, bioliquid or biomass fuel, economic operators shall use the mass balance system set out in Article 30(1) of Directive (EU) 2018/2001. Voluntary schemes may be used to demonstrate compliance with the criteria set out in Articles 4 to 6 in accordance with Article 30 of Directive (EU) 2018/2001.
