1 1 GHG Emissions from biofuels in the Renewable Energy Directive Robert Edwards EC-Joint Research Centre Ispra, Italy Euroclima International Workshop on The environmental impacts of fuel production in Latin America INTA, Buenos Aires, March 2011
2 ALTERNATIVES TO DEFAULT EMISSIONS 1. Producers calculate actual emissions for cultivation or other steps. Guidelines just published. 2. Annex (point 6) says you can make averages for cultivation emissions for defined geographic areas but then the Directive says member states must check the claims. That could mean several bilateral processes of justification. 3. Voluntary schemes article 18(4), second sub paragraph: the Commission can recognize voluntary schemes. That could cover all producers in a region. The Commission would then check whether the voluntary scheme ensures that the claimed emissions would be correct.
3 DEFAULT VALUES IF you don t have a default value for a defined geographic area AND you aren t in a voluntary scheme AND you can t (or don t want to) calculate actual emissions for your batch of biofuels THEN you must use the default value in the Renewable Energies Directive
4 DEFAULT FACTORS RULES Cultivation - not including farm machinery manufacture - with EU emissions for fertilizer manufacture*, fuel, electricity - soil N 2 O from Global N 2 O Calculator (talk by Renate Koeble), weighted by suppliers to EU market - not including soil C changes (at least, so far) - so far did not include energy for irrigation - (rules on not using some types of land) *EU values generally lower than rest-of-the world, especially with ETS
5 DEFAULT EMISSIONS RULES Processing - Allocation to products of the (emissions from the process + upstream emissions) to products in proportion to the lower heating value of the products DEFAULT VALUE = ACTUAL VALUE + 40% of PROCESSING emissions
6 WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY LOWER HEATING VALUE? There are 2 definitions for moist material: 1. heat from burning the dry part of the material (not including the energy in steam in the exhaust) 2. Like (1) but subtracting the energy to evaporate the water in the material The Commission says in a 2008 Communication: for allocation you must use the second definition but our emissions calculation tool works internally with the first definition (but we can get round it)
7 Consequences of wet definition The Lower Heat Value of wet materials decreases Therefore wet by-products (like wet Distillers Grains with Solubles; DDGS) get less allocation than dry ones
8 WORLD DEFAULT VALUES We prefer estimating world defaults because otherwise every country without a default can complain. The defaults are intended to represent the weighted average emissions of suppliers to EU market. (for oilseeds that is in veg-oil equivalents, for all purposes.) Data from world sources where possible: - International Fertilizer Asssociation/FAO - GNOC N2O calculator
9 weighting fractions for world soy-beans inputs - Calculated from latest (2008) FAO data on imports to EU: total of oil and seeds-as-oil-equivalent - GNOC finds weighted average of N2O emissions per tonne of all suppliers to EU market, - but for farm inputs we only have data for major suppliers This is the weighted average of the 3 major exporters to EU. We do not have farming data (except N fertilizer) for other producers. (oil + oil-equivalents) % EU supply Corrected to make 100 % Argentina Brasil USA TOTAL
