Amendment 136 #
Council position
Recital 15
(15) The estimated indirect land- use change emissions should be counted towards the target in Article 7a(2) of Directive 98/70/EC in order to provide incentives for the biofuels with low indirect land-use change impacts and to ensure the accuracy and credibility of the reduction target for life cycle greenhouse gas emissions. It should also be included in the reporting by the Commission 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.

Amendment 154 #
Council position
Recital 26
(26) The Commission should review the effectiveness of the measures introduced by this Directive, based on the best and latest available scientific evidence, in limiting indirect land-use change greenhouse gas emissions and addressing ways to further minimise that impact, which could include the introduction of estimated indirect land-use change emission factors in the sustainability scheme as of 1 January 2021.

Article 1 – point 2 – point b
Directive 98/70/EC
Article 7a – paragraph 6
6. 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 estimated indirect land-use change emissions. Member States shall report those data to the Commission.

Amendment 348 #
Council position
Article 3 – paragraph 2 – subparagraph 2
The report referred to in the first subparagraph shall, if appropriate, be accompanied by a legislative proposal, based on the best available scientific evidence, for introducing adjusted estimated indirect land-use change emissions factors into the appropriate sustainability criteria an. It shall also be accompanied by a review of the effectiveness of the incentives provided for biofuels from non-land using feedstocks and non-food crops under Article 3(4) of Directive 2009/28/EC and, if appropriate, by a technology-neutral legislative proposal for promoting sustainable advanced biofuels after 2020. In this regard, the Commission is invited to consider the important role of Directive 98/70/EC in promoting sustainable biofuels in a 2030 framework for climate and energy policies and review the targets under Directive 98/70/EC. One option in this regards is for the Commission to consider coming with a proposal for a Union-level blending mandate for advanced biofuels post-2020 that comply with the sustainability criteria of Directive 98/70/EC. As part of that report, the Commission shall, in light of Member States' reports pursuant to Article 3(5) of Directive 2009/28/EC, assess the effectiveness of measures taken to prevent and fight fraud, and shall, if appropriate, submit proposals for further measures, including on additional measures to be taken at Union level.
