Amendment 55 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 6
(6) Liquid renewable fuels are likely to be required by the transport sector in order to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Advanced biofuels, such as those made from wastes, cellulosic and ligno- cellulosic materials and algae, provide high greenhouse gas savings with low risk of causing indirect land use change and do not compete directly for agricultural land for the food and feed markets. It is appropriate, therefore, to substantially encourage greater production of such advanced biofuels as these are currently not commercially available in large quantities, in part due to competition for public subsidies with established food crop based biofuel technologies. Further incentives should be provided by increasing the weighting of advanced biofuels towards 10% target for transport set in Directive 2009/28/EC compared to conventional biofuels. In this context, only advanced biofuels with low estimated indirect land use change impacts and highhich provide overall greenhouse gas savings should be more intensively supported as part of the post 2020 renewable energy policy framework.

Amendment 62 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 9
(9) To prepare for the transition towards advanced biofuels and minimise the overall indirect land use change impacts in the period to 2020, it is appropriate to limit the amount of biofuels and bioliquids obtained from food crops as set out in part A of Annex VIII to Directive 2009/28/EC and part A of Annex V to Directive 98/70/EC that can be counted towards tand to prepare for the potential impact of advanced biofuels on the agricultural margkets set out in Directive 2009/28/EC. Without restricting the overall use of such biofuels, the share of biofuels and bioliquids produced from cereal and other starch rich crops, sug, an ambitious target should be set for advanced biofuel use, according to a calendar which guar and oil crops that can be counted towards the targets of Directive 2009/28/EC should be limited to the share of such biofuels and bioliquids consumed in 2011tees the security of investments made by operators.

Amendment 69 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11
(11) The estimated indirect land-use change emissions should be included in the reporting of greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels under Directives 98/70/EC and 2009/28/EC. Biofuels made from feedstocks that do not lead to additional demand for land, such as those from waste feedstocks, should be assigned a zero emissions factor. .deleted

Directive 2009/28/EC
Article 2 – point o a (new)
1a. Point oa (new) is inserted in Article 2: ‘(oa) ‘advanced biofuels’ means biofuels produced from feedstock that do not compete directly with food and feed crops. A non-exhaustive list of advanced biofuels is established in Annex IX. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 25b in order to adapt this list to scientific and technical progress.’
