Article 2 – paragraph 2 – point s
(s) 'non-food cellulosic material' means feedstocks mainly composed of cellulose and hemicellulose, and having a lower lignin-content than ligno-cellulosic material; it includes food and feed crop residues (such as straw, stover, husks and shells), grassy energy crops with a low starch content (such as alfalfa and other nitrogen fixing crops, cover crops before and after annual cereal and oil crops, cactus and others CAM crops, ryegrass, switchgrass, miscanthus, giant cane, etc.), industrial residues (including from food and feed crops after vegetal oils, sugars, starches and protein have been extracted), and material from biowaste ;

Article 3 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2
For the purpose of compliance with the targets referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph, the maximum joint contribution from biofuels and bioliquids produced from cereal and other starch-rich crops, sugars and oil crops shall be no more than the energy quantity corresponding to the maximum contribution as set out in paragraph 4(d). Each Member State shall ensure that the share of energy from renewable sources in petrol in 2020 is at least 7.5% of the final consumption of energy in petrol in that Member State

Article 3 – paragraph 4 – subparagraph 2 – point e – subparagraph 1
(e) Member States shall seek to achieve the objective of a minimum proportion of biofuels produced from feedstocks and other fuels, listed in part A of Annex IX, being consumed on their territory. To that effect, each Member State shall set a national target, which it shall endeavour to achieve. A reference value for this target is 0,5 percentage points in energy content of the share of energy from renewable sources in all forms of transport in 2020 referred to in the first subparagraph, to be met with biofuels produced from feedstocks and other fuels, listed in part A of Annex IX, and which shall be considered to be twice their energy content in accordance with point (f) of this subparagraph and part A of Annex IX. In addition, biofuels made from feedstocks not listed in Annex IX that were determined to be wastes, residues, non- food cellulosic material or ligno-cellulosic material by the competent national authorities and are used in existing installations prior to the adoption of Directive 2014/…/EU+ of the European Parliament and of the Council*, mayshall be counsidered to be twice their energy contednt towards the national target. target referred to in the first subparagraph of Article 3(4). __________________ +OJ: please insert the number of this Directive.
