Amendment 67 #
(6 a) Biofuels that are the result of protein production can be used and valued as first-generation biofuels, not only they have a positive impact on arable land, the environment and greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector, but they are also part of a circular economy since the co-products are thus recycled; the co-products from these crops also enable the European Union to be less dependent on imports and free up arable land in third countries;

Recital 6 b (new)
(6 b) Whereas the principle of circular economy can apply to all crops generating co-products that can be used and valued as biofuel, nevertheless recalls that the production of biofuel must not divert the primary object of these crops;

Recital 25 a (new)
(25 a) In order to facilitate the penetration of renewable energy in the transport sector, each Member State shall endeavour to gradually increase the share of renewable energy supplied for transport from at least 10% in 2020 to at least 15% in 2030, expressed in terms of national share of final energy consumption and calculated according to the methodology set out in Article 7.

(ee) ‘advanced biofuels’ means biofuels that are produced from feedstocks listed in part A of Annex IXAnnex IX; they must comply with the principle of the waste hierarchy and avoid significant distortions in the markets for products, waste or residues;

Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4 a (new)
Both the gradual reduction to 3.8% in 2030 and the possibility for Members States to set lower limits shall not apply to biofuels produced from protein crops as co-products. For the latter, Member States shall be entitled to implement incentive measures to favour their use, for example by setting a specific obligation of incorporation within the limit of 7%, or beyond that limit pending the effective availability of advanced biofuels.
Amendment 314 #

Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4 a (new)
Article 7 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4 a (new)
The contribution of transport fuels from palm oil and its derivatives to the share of renewables in transport should be limited to a maximum of [1] % of the final consumption of energy in transport until global peatland conversion is halted. Such limit may be amended on the basis of a report by the European Commission effective policies are put in place to prevent global peatland conversion.

Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 1
Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 1
With effect from 1 January 2021, Member States shall require fuel suppliers to include a minimum share of energy from advanced biofuels and other biofuels and biogas produced from feedstock listed in Annex IX, from“highly sustainable crop based biofuels”, renewable liquid and gaseous transport fuels of non-biological origin, from waste-based fossil fuels and from renewable electricity in the total amount of transport fuels they supply for consumption or use on the market in the course of a calendar year.
Amendment 392 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2 a (new)
Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2 a (new)
This is without prejudice for the possibility for Member States to apply a 7% share for biofuels produced from protein crops. For the latter, Member States shall be allowed to implement incentive measures to favour their use, for example by setting a specific obligation of incorporation within the limit of 7%, or beyond that limit pending the effective availability of advanced biofuels.
Amendment 403 #

Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4 – point a
a) for the calculation of the denominator, that is the energy content of road and rail transport fuels supplied for consumption or use on the market, petrol, diesel, natural gas, biofuels, biogas, renewable liquid and gaseous transport fuels of non-biological origin, waste-based fossil fuels and electricity, shall be taken into account;
Amendment 407 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4 – point b – paragraph 1
Article 25 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 4 – point b – paragraph 1
for the calculation of the numerator, the energy content of advanced biofuels and other biofuels and biogas produced from feedstock listed in Annex IX, renewable liquid and gaseous transport fuels of non- biological origin, waste based fossil fuels supplied to all transport sectors, and renewable electricity supplied to road vehicles, shall be taken into account.
