~~Article 7Change in supply of crude oils~~If, as a result of exceptional events, a sudden change in the supply of crude oils or petroleum products renders it difficult for the refineries in a Member State to respect the fuel specification requirements of Articles 3 and 4, that Member State shall inform the Commission thereof. The Commission, after informing the other Member States, may authorise higher limit values in that Member State for one or more fuel components for a period not exceeding six months.~~The Commission shall notify the Member States and inform the European Parliament and the Council of its decision.Any Member State may refer the Commission's decision to the Council within one month of its notification.The Council, acting by a qualified majority, may take a different decision within one month of the matter being referred to it.~~

~~Article 7aGreenhouse gas emission reductions~~1.Member States shall designate the supplier or suppliers responsible for monitoring and reporting life cycle greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy from fuel and energy supplied. In the case of providers of electricity for use in road vehicles, Member States shall ensure that such providers may choose to become a contributor to the reduction obligation laid down in paragraph 2 if they can demonstrate that they can adequately measure and monitor electricity supplied for use in those vehicles.In the case of suppliers of biofuels for use in aviation, Member States may permit such suppliers to choose to become contributors to the reduction obligation laid down in paragraph 2 of this Article provided that that those biofuels comply with the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b.~~With effect from~~ ~~1 January 2011~~, suppliers shall report annually, to the authority designated by the Member State, on the greenhouse gas intensity of fuel and energy supplied within each Member State by providing, as a minimum, the following information:~~(a)the total volume of each type of fuel or energy supplied; and(b)life cycle greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy.Member States shall ensure that reports are subject to verification.The Commission shall, where appropriate, establish guidelines for the implementation of this paragraph.~~2.~~Member States shall require suppliers to reduce as gradually as possible life cycle greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy from fuel and energy supplied by up to 10 % by~~ ~~31 December 2020, compared with the fuel baseline standard set out in Annex II to Council Directive (EU) 2015/652. That reduction shall consist of:(a)6 % by~~ ~~31 December 2020. Member States may require suppliers, for this reduction, to comply with the following intermediate targets: 2 % by~~ ~~31 December 2014~~ ~~and 4 % by~~ ~~31 December 2017~~;~~(b)an indicative additional target of 2 % by~~ ~~31 December 2020, subject to Article 9(1)(h), to be achieved through one or both of the following methods:(i)the supply of energy for transport supplied for use in any type of road vehicle, non-road mobile machinery (including inland waterway vessels), agricultural or forestry tractor or recreational craft;(ii)the use of any technology (including carbon capture and storage) capable of reducing life cycle greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy from fuel or energy supplied;(c)an indicative additional target of 2 % by~~ ~~31 December 2020~~, subject to Article 9(1)(i), to be achieved through the use of credits purchased through the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol, under the conditions set out in Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of ~~13 October 2003~~ ~~establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the CommunityOJ L 275, 25.10.2003, p. 32~~.~~, for reductions in the fuel supply sector.~~Member States may provide that the maximum contribution of biofuels produced from cereal and other starch-rich crops, sugars and oil crops and from crops grown as main crops primarily for energy purposes on agricultural land for the purpose of compliance with the target referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph shall not exceed the maximum contribution established in point (d) of the second subparagraph of Article 3(4) of Directive 2009/28/EC.3.Life cycle greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels shall be calculated in accordance with Article 7d. Lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions from other fuels and energy shall be calculated using a methodology laid down in accordance with paragraph 5 of this Article.4.Member States shall ensure that a group of suppliers may choose to meet the reduction obligations pursuant to paragraph 2 jointly. In such case they shall be considered as a single supplier for the purposes of paragraph 2.5.The Commission shall adopt implementing acts in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3) to set out detailed rules for the uniform implementation, by Member States, of paragraph 4 of this Article.6.~~The Commission shall be empowered to adopt no later than~~ ~~31 December 2017~~ ~~delegated acts in order to establish greenhouse gas emission default values, where such values have not already been established prior to~~ ~~5 October 2015, as regards:(a)renewable liquid and gaseous transport fuels of non-biological origin;(b)carbon capture and utilisation for transport purposes.~~7.As part of the reporting under paragraph 1, Member States shall ensure that fuel suppliers report annually to the authority designated by the Member State, on the biofuel production pathways, volumes of biofuels derived from the feedstocks as categorised in Part A of Annex V, and the life cycle greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy, including the provisional mean values of the estimated indirect land-use change emissions from biofuels. Member States shall report those data to the Commission.

~~Article 7bSustainability criteria for biofuels~~1.Irrespective of whether the raw materials were cultivated inside or outside the territory of the Community, energy from biofuels shall be taken into account for the purposes of Article 7a only if they fulfil the sustainability criteria set out in paragraphs 2 to 6 of this Article.However, biofuels produced from waste and residues, other than agricultural, aquaculture, fisheries and forestry residues, need only fulfil the sustainability criteria set out in paragraph 2 of this Article in order to be taken into account for the purposes referred to in Article 7a.2.The greenhouse gas emission saving from the use of biofuels taken into account for the purposes referred to in paragraph 1 shall be at least 60 % for biofuels produced in installations starting operation after ~~5 October 2015. An installation shall be considered to be in operation if the physical production of biofuels has taken place.In the case of installations that were in operation on or before~~ ~~5 October 2015, for the purposes referred to in paragraph 1, biofuels shall achieve a greenhouse gas emission saving of at least 35 % until~~ ~~31 December 2017~~ ~~and at least 50 % from~~ ~~1 January 2018~~.~~The greenhouse gas emission saving from the use of biofuels shall be calculated in accordance with Article 7d(1).~~3.Biofuels taken into account for the purposes referred to in paragraph 1 shall not be made from raw material obtained from land with high biodiversity value, namely, land that had one of the following statuses in or after January 2008, whether or not the land continues to have such a status:~~(a)~~primary forest and other wooded land, that is forest and other wooded land of native species, where there is no clearly visible indication of human activity and the ecological processes are not significantly disturbed;~~(b)areas designated:(i)by law or by the relevant competent authority for nature protection purposes; or(ii)~~for the protection of rare, threatened or endangered ecosystems or species recognised by international agreements or included in lists drawn up by intergovernmental organisations or the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, subject to their recognition in accordance with the second subparagraph of Article 7c(4);~~unless evidence is provided that the production of that raw material did not interfere with those nature protection purposes;(c)highly biodiverse grassland that is:(i)natural, namely, grassland that would remain grassland in the absence of human intervention and which maintains the natural species composition and ecological characteristics and processes; or(ii)~~non-natural, namely, grassland that would cease to be grassland in the absence of human intervention and which is species-rich and not degraded, unless evidence is provided that the harvesting of the raw material is necessary to preserve its grassland status.The Commission shall establish the criteria and geographic ranges to determine which grassland shall be covered by point (c) of the first subparagraph. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive, by supplementing it shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 11(4).4.Biofuels taken into account for the purposes referred to in paragraph 1 shall not be made from raw material obtained from land with high carbon stock, namely, land that had one of the following statuses in January 2008 and no longer has that status:~~(a)wetlands, namely, land that is covered with or saturated by water permanently or for a significant part of the year;(b)continuously forested areas, namely, land spanning more than one hectare with trees higher than five metres and a canopy cover of more than 30 %, or trees able to reach those thresholds~~ ~~in situ~~;~~(c)land spanning more than one hectare with trees higher than five metres and a canopy cover of between 10 % and 30 %, or trees able to reach those thresholds~~ ~~in situ~~, unless evidence is provided that the carbon stock of the area before and after conversion is such that, when the methodology laid down in Part C of Annex IV is applied, the conditions laid down in paragraph 2 of this Article would be fulfilled.~~The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply if, at the time the raw material was obtained, the land had the same status as it had in January 2008.~~5.Biofuels taken into account for the purposes referred to in paragraph 1 shall not be made from raw material obtained from land that was peatland in January 2008, unless evidence is provided that the cultivation and harvesting of that raw material does not involve drainage of previously undrained soil.6.Agricultural raw materials cultivated in the Community and used for the production of biofuels taken into account for the purposes referred to in Article 7a shall be obtained in accordance with the requirements and standards under the provisions referred to under the heading "Environment" in Part A and in point 9 of Annex II to Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 of ~~19 January 2009~~ ~~establishing common rules for direct support schemes for farmers under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmersOJ L 30, 31.1.2009, p. 16~~. ~~and in accordance with the minimum requirements for good agricultural and environmental condition defined pursuant to Article 6(1) of that Regulation.~~7.The Commission shall, every two years, report to the European Parliament and the Council, in respect of both third countries and Member States that are a significant source of biofuels or of raw material for biofuels consumed within the Community, on national measures taken to respect the sustainability criteria set out in paragraphs 2 to 5 and for soil, water and air protection. The first report shall be submitted in 2012.The Commission shall, every two years, report to the European Parliament and the Council on the impact on social sustainability in the Community and in third countries of increased demand for biofuel, on the impact of Community biofuel policy on the availability of foodstuffs at affordable prices, in particular for people living in developing countries, and on wider development issues. Reports shall address the respect of land use rights. They shall state, both for third countries and Member States that are a significant source of raw material for biofuel consumed within the Community, whether the country has ratified and implemented each of the following Conventions of the International Labour Organisation:~~Convention concerning Forced or Compulsory Labour (No 29),Convention concerning Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise (No 87),Convention concerning the Application of the Principles of the Right to Organise and to Bargain Collectively (No 98),Convention concerning Equal Remuneration of Men and Women Workers for Work of Equal Value (No 100),Convention concerning the Abolition of Forced Labour (No 105),Convention concerning Discrimination in Respect of Employment and Occupation (No 111),Convention concerning Minimum Age for Admission to Employment (No 138),Convention concerning the Prohibition and Immediate Action for the Elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labour (No 182).~~Those reports shall state, both for third countries and Member States that are a significant source of raw material for biofuel consumed within the Community, whether the country has ratified and implemented:~~the Carthagena Protocol on biosafety,the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.~~The first report shall be submitted in 2012. The Commission shall, if appropriate, propose corrective action, in particular if evidence shows that biofuel production has a significant impact on food prices.8.~~For the purposes referred to in paragraph 1, Member States shall not refuse to take into account, on other sustainability grounds, biofuels obtained in compliance with this Article.~~

~~Article 7cVerification of compliance with the sustainability criteria for biofuels~~1.Where biofuels are to be taken into account for the purposes of Article 7a, Member States shall require economic operators to show that the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b(2) to (5) have been fulfilled. For that purpose they shall require economic operators to use a mass balance system which:~~(a)allows consignments of raw material or biofuel with differing sustainability characteristics to be mixed;(b)requires information about the sustainability characteristics and sizes of the consignments referred to in point (a) to remain assigned to the mixture; and(c)~~provides for the sum of all consignments withdrawn from the mixture to be described as having the same sustainability characteristics, in the same quantities, as the sum of all consignments added to the mixture.2.The Commission shall report to the European Parliament and the Council in 2010 and 2012 on the operation of the mass balance verification method described in paragraph 1 and on the potential for allowing for other verification methods in relation to some or all types of raw material or biofuels. In its assessment the Commission shall consider those verification methods in which information about sustainability characteristics need not remain physically assigned to particular consignments or mixtures. The assessment shall take into account the need to maintain the integrity and effectiveness of the verification system while avoiding the imposition of an unreasonable burden on industry. The report shall be accompanied, where appropriate, by proposals to the European Parliament and the Council, concerning the use of other verification methods.3.Member States shall take measures to ensure that economic operators submit reliable information and make available to the Member State, on request, the data that were used to develop the information. Member States shall require economic operators to arrange for an adequate standard of independent auditing of the information submitted, and to provide evidence that this has been done. The auditing shall verify that the systems used by economic operators are accurate, reliable and protected against fraud. It shall evaluate the frequency and methodology of sampling and the robustness of the data.The information referred to in the first subparagraph shall include in particular information on compliance with the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b(2) to (5), appropriate and relevant information on measures taken for soil, water and air protection, the restoration of degraded land, the avoidance of excessive water consumption in areas where water is scarce, and appropriate and relevant information concerning measures taken in order to take into account the issues referred to in the second subparagraph of Article 7b(7).The Commission shall adopt implementing acts in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3), to establish the list of appropriate and relevant information referred to in the first two subparagraphs of this paragraph. The Commission shall ensure, in particular, that the provision of that information does not represent an excessive administrative burden for operators in general or for smallholder farmers, producer organisations and cooperatives in particular.~~The obligations laid down in this paragraph shall apply whether the biofuels are produced within the Community or imported.~~Member States shall submit to the Commission in aggregated form, the information referred to in the first subparagraph. The Commission shall publish that information on the transparency platform referred to in Article 24 of Directive 2009/28/EC in summary form preserving the confidentiality of commercially sensitive information.4.The Community shall endeavour to conclude bilateral or multilateral agreements with third countries containing provisions on sustainability criteria that correspond to those in this Directive. Where the Community has concluded agreements containing provisions relating to matters covered by the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b(2) to (5), the Commission may decide that those agreements demonstrate that biofuels produced from raw materials cultivated in those countries comply with the sustainability criteria in question. When those agreements are concluded, due consideration shall be given to measures taken for the conservation of areas that provide, in critical situations, basic ecosystem services (such as watershed protection and erosion control), for soil, water and air protection, indirect land-use changes, the restoration of degraded land, the avoidance of excessive water consumption in areas where water is scarce and to the issues referred to in the second subparagraph of Article 7b(7).The Commission may decide that voluntary national or international schemes setting standards for the production of biomass products contain accurate data for the purposes of Article 7b(2) or demonstrate that consignments of biofuel comply with the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b(3) to (5). The Commission may decide that those schemes contain accurate data for the purposes of information on measures taken for the conservation of areas that provide, in critical situations, basic ecosystem services (such as watershed protection and erosion control), for soil, water and air protection, the restoration of degraded land, the avoidance of excessive water consumption in areas where water is scarce and on the issues referred to in the second subparagraph of Article 7b(7). The Commission may also recognise areas for the protection of rare, threatened or endangered ecosystems or species recognised by international agreements or included in lists drawn up by intergovernmental organisations or the International Union for the Conservation of Nature for the purposes of Article 7b(3)(b)(ii).~~The Commission may decide that voluntary national or international schemes to measure greenhouse gas savings contain accurate data for the purposes of Article 7b(2).~~The Commission may decide that land that falls within the scope of a national or regional recovery programme aimed at improving severely degraded or heavily contaminated land fulfils the criteria referred to in point 9 of Part C of Annex IV.5.The Commission shall adopt decisions under paragraph 4 only if the agreement or scheme in question meets adequate standards of reliability, transparency and independent auditing. Schemes to measure greenhouse gas savings shall also comply with the methodological requirements in Annex IV. Lists of areas of high biodiversity value as referred to in Article 7b(3)(b)(ii) shall meet adequate standards of objectivity and coherence with internationally recognised standards and provide for appropriate appeal procedures.The voluntary schemes referred to in paragraph 4 ("the voluntary schemes") shall regularly, and at least once per year, publish a list of their certification bodies used for independent auditing, indicating for each certification body by which entity or national public authority it was recognised and which entity or national public authority is monitoring it.In order in particular to prevent fraud, the Commission may, on the basis of a risk analysis or the reports referred to in the second subparagraph of paragraph 6 of this Article, specify the standards of independent auditing and require all voluntary schemes to apply those standards. This shall be done by means of implementing acts adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3). Such acts shall set a time frame by which voluntary schemes need to implement the standards. The Commission may repeal decisions recognising voluntary schemes in the event that those schemes fail to implement such standards in the time frame provided for.6.Decisions under paragraph 4 of this Article shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3). Such decisions shall be valid for a period of no more than five years.~~The Commission shall require that each voluntary scheme, on which a decision has been adopted under paragraph 4, submit by~~ ~~6 October 2016~~ and annually thereafter by 30 April, a report to the Commission covering each of the points set out in the third subparagraph of this paragraph. Generally, the report shall cover the preceding calendar year. The first report shall cover at least six months from ~~9 September 2015. The requirement to submit a report shall apply only to voluntary schemes that have operated for at least 12 months.~~By ~~6 April 2017~~, the Commission shall submit a report to the European Parliament and to the Council analysing the reports referred to in the second subparagraph of this paragraph, reviewing the operation of the agreements referred to in paragraph 4 or voluntary schemes in respect of which a decision has been adopted in accordance with this Article, and identifying best practices. The report shall be based on the best information available, including following consultations with stakeholders, and on practical experience in the application of the agreements or schemes concerned. The report shall analyse the following:~~in general:(a)~~the independence, modality and frequency of audits, both in relation to what is stated on those aspects in the scheme documentation, at the time the scheme concerned was approved by the Commission, and in relation to industry best practice;~~(b)~~the availability of, and experience and transparency in the application of, methods for identifying and dealing with non-compliance, with particular regard to dealing with situations or allegations of serious wrongdoing on the part of members of the scheme;~~(c)~~transparency, particularly in relation to the accessibility of the scheme, the availability of translations in the applicable languages of the countries and regions from which raw materials originate, the accessibility of a list of certified operators and relevant certificates, and the accessibility of auditor reports;~~(d)~~stakeholder involvement, particularly as regards the consultation of indigenous and local communities prior to decision making during the drafting and reviewing of the scheme as well as during audits and the response given to their contributions;~~(e)the overall robustness of the scheme, particularly in light of rules on the accreditation, qualification and independence of auditors and relevant scheme bodies;(f)market updates of the scheme, the amount of feedstocks and biofuels certified, by country of origin and type, the number of participants;(g)~~the ease and effectiveness of implementing a system that tracks the proofs of conformity with the sustainability criteria that the scheme gives to its member(s), such a system intended to serve as a means of preventing fraudulent activity with a view, in particular, to the detection, treatment and follow-up of suspected fraud and other irregularities and where appropriate, the number of cases of fraud or irregularities detected;~~and in particular:(h)options for entities to be authorised to recognise and monitor certification bodies;(i)criteria for the recognition or accreditation of certification bodies;(j)rules on how the monitoring of the certification bodies is to be conducted;(k)ways to facilitate or improve the promotion of best practice.~~A Member State may notify its national scheme to the Commission. The Commission shall give priority to the assessment of such a scheme. A decision on the compliance of such a notified national scheme with the conditions set out in this Directive shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3), in order to facilitate mutual bilateral and multilateral recognition of schemes for verification of compliance with the sustainability criteria for biofuels. Where the decision is positive, schemes established in accordance with this Article shall not refuse mutual recognition with that Member State's scheme as regards the verification of compliance with the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b(2) to (5).7.When an economic operator provides proof or data obtained in accordance with an agreement or scheme that has been the subject of a decision under paragraph 4, to the extent covered by that decision, a Member State shall not require the supplier to provide further evidence of compliance with the sustainability criteria set out in Article 7b(2) to (5) nor information on measures referred to in the second subparagraph of paragraph 3 of this Article.8.At the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, the Commission shall examine the application of Article 7b in relation to a source of biofuel and, within six months of receipt of a request decide, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3), whether the Member State concerned may take biofuel from that source into account for the purposes of Article 7a.9.By ~~31 December 2012, the Commission shall report to the European Parliament and to the Council on:(a)the effectiveness of the system in place for the provision of information on sustainability criteria; and(b)~~whether it is feasible and appropriate to introduce mandatory requirements in relation to air, soil or water protection, taking into account the latest scientific evidence and the Community's international obligations.~~The Commission shall, if appropriate, propose corrective action.~~

~~Article 7dCalculation of life cycle greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels~~1.~~For the purposes of Article 7a and Article 7b(2), life cycle greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels shall be calculated as follows:(a)where a default value for greenhouse gas emission savings for the biofuel production pathway is laid down in Part A or B of Annex IV and where the e~~l ~~value for those biofuels calculated in accordance with point 7 of Part C of Annex IV is equal to or less than zero, by using that default value;(b)by using an actual value calculated in accordance with the methodology laid down in Part C of Annex IV; or(c)~~by using a value calculated as the sum of the factors of the formula referred to in point 1 of Part C of Annex IV, where disaggregated default values in Part D or E of Annex IV may be used for some factors, and actual values, calculated in accordance with the methodology laid down in Part C of Annex IV, for all other factors.2.By ~~31 March 2010~~, Member States shall submit to the Commission a report, including a list of those areas on their territory classified as level 2 in the nomenclature of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) or as a more disaggregated NUTS level in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of ~~26 May 2003~~ ~~on the establishment of a common classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS)OJ L 154, 21.6.2003, p. 1~~. where the typical greenhouse gas emissions from cultivation of agricultural raw materials can be expected to be lower than or equal to the emissions reported under the heading "Disaggregated default values for cultivation" in Part D of Annex IV to this Directive, accompanied by a description of the method and data used to establish that list. That method shall take into account soil characteristics, climate and expected raw material yields.3.The typical greenhouse gas emissions from cultivation of agricultural raw materials included in the reports referred to in paragraph 2 in the case of Member States, and, in the case of territories outside the Union, in reports equivalent to those referred to in paragraph 2 and drawn up by competent bodies, may be reported to the Commission.4.The Commission may decide, by means of an implementing act adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3), that the reports referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article contain accurate data for the purposes of measuring the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the cultivation of biofuel feedstocks typically produced in those areas for the purposes of Article 7b(2).5.By ~~31 December 2012~~ at the latest and every two years thereafter, the Commission shall draw up and publish a report on the estimated typical and default values in Parts B and E of Annex IV, paying special attention to greenhouse gas emissions from transport and processing.In the event that the reports referred to in the first subparagraph indicate that the estimated typical and default values in Parts B and E of Annex IV might need to be adjusted on the basis of the latest scientific evidence, the Commission shall, as appropriate, submit a legislative proposal to the European Parliament and to the Council.6.~~The Commission shall, by~~ ~~31 December 2010~~, submit a report to the European Parliament and to the Council reviewing the impact of indirect land use change on greenhouse gas emissions and addressing ways to minimise that impact. The report shall, if appropriate, be accompanied by a proposal, based on the best available scientific evidence, containing a concrete methodology for emissions from carbon stock changes caused by indirect land use changes, ensuring compliance with this Directive, in particular Article 7b(2).Such a proposal shall include the necessary safeguards to provide certainty for investment, undertaken before that methodology is applied. With respect to installations that produced biofuels before the end of 2013, the application of the measures referred to in the first subparagraph shall not, until ~~31 December 2017~~, lead to biofuels produced by these installations being deemed to have failed to comply with the sustainability requirements of this Directive if they would otherwise have done so, provided that those biofuels achieve a greenhouse gas saving of at least 45 %. This shall apply to the capacities of the installations of biofuels at the end of 2012.~~The European Parliament and the Council shall endeavour to decide by~~ ~~31 December 2012~~ ~~on any such proposals submitted by the Commission.~~7.The Commission shall keep Annex IV under review, with a view, where justified, to the addition of values for further biofuel production pathways for the same or for other raw materials. That review shall also consider the modification of the methodology laid down in Part C of Annex IV, particularly with regard to:~~the method of accounting for wastes and residues;the method of accounting for co-products;the method of accounting for cogeneration; andthe status given to agricultural crop residues as co-products.~~The default values for waste vegetable or animal oil biodiesel shall be reviewed as soon as possible. In the event that the Commission's review concludes that additions to Annex IV should be made, the Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts pursuant to Article 10a to add, but not to remove or amend, estimated typical and default values in Parts A, B, D and E of Annex IV for biofuel pathways for which specific values are not yet included in that Annex.~~Any adaptation of or addition to the list of default values in Annex IV shall comply with the following:(a)~~where the contribution of a factor to overall emissions is small, or where there is limited variation, or where the cost or difficulty of establishing actual values is high, default values must be typical of normal production processes;~~(b)in all other cases default values must be conservative compared to normal production processes.~~8.Where necessary in order to ensure the uniform application of point 9 of Part C of Annex IV, the Commission may adopt implementing acts setting out detailed technical specifications and definitions. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3).

~~Article 7eImplementing measures and reports concerning the sustainability of biofuels~~1.The implementing measures referred to in the second subparagraph of Article 7b(3), the third subparagraph of Article 7c(3), Article 7c(6), Article 7c(8), Article 7d(5), the first subparagraph of Article 7d(7) and Article 7d(8) shall also take full account of the purposes of Directive 2009/28/EC.2.The reports by the Commission to the European Parliament and to the Council referred to in Article 7b(7), Article 7c(2), Article 7c(9) and Article 7d(4) and (5), as well as the reports and information submitted pursuant to the first and fifth subparagraphs of Article 7c(3) and Article 7d(2), shall be prepared and transmitted for the purposes of both Directive 2009/28/EC and this Directive.

The use of an alternative fuel quality monitoring system may be permitted provided that such a system ensures results of equivalent confidence.3.Each year by 31 August, the Member States shall submit a report on national fuel quality data for the preceding calendar year. The Commission shall establish a common format for the submission of a summary of national fuel quality data by means of an implementing act adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 11(3). The first report shall be submitted by ~~30 June 2002. From~~ ~~1 January 2004~~, the format for this report shall be consistent with that described in the relevant European standard. In addition, Member States shall report the total volumes of petrol and diesel fuels marketed in their territories and the volumes of unleaded petrol and diesel fuels marketed with a maximum sulphur content of 10 mg/kg. Furthermore, Member States shall report annually on the availability, on an appropriately balanced geographical basis, of petrol and diesel fuels with a maximum sulphur content of 10 mg/kg that are marketed within their territory.4.~~The Commission shall ensure that the information submitted pursuant to paragraph 3 is promptly made available by appropriate means.~~

~~Article 8aMetallic additives~~1.The Commission shall conduct an assessment of the risks for health and the environment from the use of metallic additives in fuel and, for this purpose, develop a test methodology. It shall report its conclusions to the European Parliament and to the Council by ~~31 December 2012~~.2.Pending the development of the test methodology referred to in paragraph 1, the presence of the metallic additive methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) in fuel shall be limited to 6 mg of manganese per litre from ~~1 January 2011. The limit shall be 2 mg of manganese per litre from~~ ~~1 January 2014~~.3.In light of the assessment carried out using the test methodology referred to in paragraph 1, the European Parliament and the Council may revise the limit for the MMT content of fuel specified in paragraph 2, on the basis of a legislative proposal from the Commission.4.~~Member States shall ensure that a label concerning the metallic additive content of fuel is displayed at any point where a fuel with metallic additives is made available to consumers.~~5.~~The label shall contain the following text: "Contains metallic additives".~~6.The label shall be attached to the place where information indicating the type of fuel is displayed, in a clearly visible position. The label shall be of a size and font that is clearly visible and easily legible.

~~Article 9Reporting~~1.~~The Commission shall submit by~~ ~~31 December 2012~~, and every three years thereafter, a report to the European Parliament and the Council accompanied, where appropriate, by a proposal for amendments to this Directive.

C.~~Methodology~~1.~~Greenhouse gas emissions from the production and use of biofuels shall be calculated as:~~E = eec + el + ep + etd + eu – e~~sca~~ – e~~ccs~~ – e~~ccr~~ – eee~~where~~E~~total emissions from the use of the fuel;~~eec~~emissions from the extraction or cultivation of raw materials;~~el~~annualised emissions from carbon stock changes caused by land use change;~~ep~~emissions from processing;~~etd~~emissions from transport and distribution;~~eu~~emissions from the fuel in use;~~e~~scaemission savings from soil carbon accumulation via improved agricultural management;~~e~~ccsemission savings from carbon capture and geological storage;~~e~~ccremission savings from carbon capture and replacement; and~~eee~~emission savings from excess electricity from cogeneration.Emissions from the manufacture of machinery and equipment shall not be taken into account.~~2.~~Greenhouse gas emissions from fuels, E, shall be expressed in terms of grams of CO~~2 ~~equivalent per MJ of fuel, gCO2eq/MJ.~~3.~~By derogation from point 2, values calculated in terms of gCO2eq~~/MJ may be adjusted to take into account differences between fuels in useful work done, expressed in terms of km/MJ. Such adjustments shall only be made where evidence of the differences in useful work done is provided.4.~~Greenhouse gas emission savings from biofuels shall be calculated as:SAVING~~ ~~= (~~EF – EB)/EF~~where~~EB~~total emissions from the biofuel; and~~EF~~total emissions from the fossil fuel comparator.~~5.~~The greenhouse gases taken into account for the purposes of point 1 shall be CO~~2~~, N~~2~~O and CH~~4~~. For the purpose of calculating CO~~2 ~~equivalence, those gases shall be valued as follows:~~CO21N2O~~296~~CH4236.~~Emissions from the extraction or cultivation of raw materials, e~~ec, shall include emissions from the extraction or cultivation process itself; from the collection of raw materials; from waste and leakages; and from the production of chemicals or products used in extraction or cultivation. Capture of CO2 in the cultivation of raw materials shall be excluded. Certified reductions of greenhouse gas emissions from flaring at oil production sites anywhere in the world shall be deducted. Estimates of emissions from cultivation may be derived from the use of averages calculated for smaller geographical areas than those used in the calculation of the default values, as an alternative to using actual values.7.~~Annualised emissions from carbon stock changes caused by land-use change, e~~l~~, shall be calculated by dividing total emissions equally over 20 years. For the calculation of those emissions, the following rule shall be applied:~~el ~~= (CS~~R ~~– CS~~A~~) × 3,664 × 1/20 × 1/P – e~~B,~~The quotient obtained by dividing the molecular weight of CO~~2 ~~(44,010 g/mol) by the molecular weight of carbon (12,011 g/mol) is equal to 3,664.where~~el~~annualised greenhouse gas emissions from carbon stock change due to land-use change (measured as mass (grams) of CO~~2~~-equivalent per unit biofuel energy (megajoules)). "Cropland"Cropland as defined by IPCC.~~ ~~and "perennial cropland"Perennial crops are defined as multi-annual crops, the stem of which is usually not annually harvested such as short rotation coppice and oil palm.~~ ~~shall be regarded as one land use;~~CSRthe carbon stock per unit area associated with the reference land-use (measured as mass (tonnes) of carbon per unit area, including both soil and vegetation). The reference land-use shall be the land-use in January 2008 or 20 years before the raw material was obtained, whichever was the later;CSAthe carbon stock per unit area associated with the actual land-use (measured as mass (tonnes) of carbon per unit area, including both soil and vegetation). In cases where the carbon stock accumulates over more than one year, the value attributed to CSA ~~shall be the estimated stock per unit area after 20 years or when the crop reaches maturity, whichever is the earlier;~~P~~the productivity of the crop (measured as biofuel energy per unit area per year) and~~eB~~bonus of 29 gCO2eq/MJ biofuel if biomass is obtained from restored degraded land under the conditions provided for in point 8.~~8.~~The bonus of 29 gCO2eq/MJ shall be attributed if evidence is provided that the land:(a)was not in use for agriculture or any other activity in January 2008; and(b)falls into one of the following categories:(i)severely degraded land, including such land that was formerly in agricultural use;(ii)heavily contaminated land.The bonus of 29 gCO2eq~~/MJ shall apply for a period of up to 10 years from the date of conversion of the land to agricultural use, provided that a steady increase in carbon stocks as well as a sizable reduction in erosion phenomena for land falling under (i) are ensured and that soil contamination for land falling under (ii) is reduced.9.~~The categories mentioned in point 8(b) are defined as follows:(a)"severely degraded land" means land that, for a significant period of time, has either been significantly salinated or presented significantly low organic matter content and been severely eroded;(b)"heavily contaminated land" means land that is unfit for the cultivation of food and feed due to soil contamination.Such land shall include land that has been the subject of a Commission decision in accordance with the fourth subparagraph of Article 7c(3).10.The guide adopted pursuant to point 10 of Part C of Annex V to Directive 2009/28/EC shall serve as the basis of the calculation of land carbon stocks for the purposes of this Directive.11.Emissions from processing,~~ ep~~, shall include emissions from the processing itself; from waste and leakages; and from the production of chemicals or products used in processing.~~In accounting for the consumption of electricity not produced within the fuel production plant, the greenhouse gas emission intensity of the production and distribution of that electricity shall be assumed to be equal to the average emission intensity of the production and distribution of electricity in a defined region. As an exception to this rule producers may use an average value for an individual electricity production plant for electricity produced by that plant, if that plant is not connected to the electricity grid.~~12.Emissions from transport and distribution,~~ etd, shall include emissions from the transport and storage of raw and semi-finished materials and from the storage and distribution of finished materials. Emissions from transport and distribution to be taken into account under point 6 shall not be covered by this point.~~13.Emissions from the fuel in use,~~ eu~~, shall be taken to be zero for biofuels.14.Emission savings from carbon capture and geological storage~~ e~~ccs, that have not already been accounted for in~~ ep~~, shall be limited to emissions avoided through the capture and sequestration of emitted CO~~2 ~~directly related to the extraction, transport, processing and distribution of fuel.15.Emission savings from carbon capture and replacement,~~ e~~ccr, shall be limited to emissions avoided through the capture of CO~~2 ~~of which the carbon originates from biomass and which is used to replace fossil-derived CO~~2 ~~used in commercial products and services.16.Emission savings from excess electricity from cogeneration,~~ eee, shall be taken into account in relation to the excess electricity produced by fuel production systems that use cogeneration except where the fuel used for the cogeneration is a co-product other than an agricultural crop residue. In accounting for that excess electricity, the size of the cogeneration unit shall be assumed to be the minimum necessary for the cogeneration unit to supply the heat that is needed to produce the fuel. The greenhouse gas emission savings associated with that excess electricity shall be taken to be equal to the amount of greenhouse gas that would be emitted when an equal amount of electricity was generated in a power plant using the same fuel as the cogeneration unit.~~17.~~Where a fuel production process produces, in combination, the fuel for which emissions are being calculated and one or more other products (co-products), greenhouse gas emissions shall be divided between the fuel or its intermediate product and the co-products in proportion to their energy content (determined by lower heating value in the case of co-products other than electricity).~~18.For the purposes of the calculation referred to in point 17, the emissions to be divided shall be~~ eec + el ~~+ those fractions of~~ ep, etd ~~and~~ eee that take place up to and including the process step at which a co-product is produced. If any allocation to co-products has taken place at an earlier process step in the life-cycle, the fraction of those emissions assigned in the last such process step to the intermediate fuel product shall be used for this purpose instead of the total of those emissions.All co-products, including electricity that does not fall under the scope of point 16, shall be taken into account for the purposes of that calculation, except for agricultural crop residues, including straw, bagasse, husks, cobs and nut shells. Co-products that have a negative energy content shall be considered to have an energy content of zero for the purpose of the calculation.Wastes, agricultural crop residues, including straw, bagasse, husks, cobs and nut shells, and residues from processing, including crude glycerine (glycerine that is not refined), shall be considered to have zero life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions up to the process of collection of those materials.~~In the case of fuels produced in refineries, the unit of analysis for the purposes of the calculation referred to in point 17 shall be the refinery.19.For the purposes of the calculation referred to in point 4, the fossil fuel comparator~~ EF shall be the latest available actual average emissions from the fossil part of petrol and diesel consumed in the Community as reported under this Directive. If no such data are available, the value used shall be 83,8 gCO~~2eq/MJ.~~D.~~Disaggregated default values for biofuelsDisaggregated default values for cultivation: "e~~ec~~" as defined in Part C of this Annex~~

~~ANNEX VPart A. Provisional estimated indirect land-use change emissions from biofuels (gCO2eq/MJ)~~(+)The mean values reported here represent a weighted average of the individually modelled feedstock values. The magnitude of the values in the Annex is sensitive to the range of assumptions (such as treatment of co-products, yield developments, carbon stocks and displacement of other commodities) used in the economic models developed for their estimation. Although it is therefore not possible to fully characterise the uncertainty range associated with such estimates, a sensitivity analysis conducted on the results based on a random variation of key parameters, a so-called Monte Carlo analysis, was conducted.

~~The mean values included here represent a weighted average of the individually modelled feedstock values.~~The range included here reflects 90 % of the results using the fifth and ninety-fifth percentile values resulting from the analysis. The fifth percentile suggests a value below which 5 % of the observations were found (i.e. 5 % of total data used showed results below 8, 4, and 33 gCO~~2eq/MJ). The ninety-fifth percentile suggests a value below which 95 % of the observations were found (i.e. 5 % of total data used showed results above 16, 17, and 66 gCO2eq/MJ).~~

~~Feedstock group~~	~~Mean~~	~~Interpercentile range derived from the sensitivity analysis~~
~~Cereals and other starch-rich crops~~	12	~~8 to 16~~
~~Sugars~~	13	~~4 to 17~~
~~Oil crops~~	55	~~33 to 66~~

~~Part B. Biofuels for which the estimated indirect land-use change emissions are considered to be zeroBiofuels produced from the following feedstock categories will be considered to have estimated indirect land-use change emissions of zero:(1)feedstocks which are not listed under Part A of this Annex.(2)~~feedstocks, the production of which has led to direct land-use change, i.e. a change from one of the following IPCC land cover categories; forest land, grassland, wetlands, settlements, or other land, to cropland or perennial cropland(++)~~Perennial crops are defined as multi-annual crops, the stem of which is usually not annually harvested such as short rotation coppice and oil palm.. In such a case a direct land-use change emission value (~~el~~) should have been calculated in accordance with paragraph 7 of Part C of Annex IV.~~
