• 10% of the energy value of transportation fuels must consist of biofuel by 2020. Only 7% of the energy may be crop based biofuels(1st gen). The other 3% must be waste based
• Sustainability of feedstock used to make biofuels
Renewable Energy Directive (RED)
Demand for biofuels is growing rapidly
• Reduce the greenhouse gas emissions caused by the production, transport and use of their fuels by 10% between 2011 and 2020
• Cut emissions by a cumulative total of 500 million tonnes of carbon dioxide by 2020

• Waste digestion plants supply green gas to the national gas grid
• Gas from the grid is used for the production of methanol
• Green gas certificates are sold to BioMCN
• On a mass balance base methanol is certified as bio-methanol

From green CO2 to bio-methanol
• Planned in June 2017
• Liquid green CO2 injection in converter loop
• 20 kton green CO2 converted to 15 kton bio-methanol using the access of hydrogen
• Investment: 1.2 million Euro
