Article 2 – point 11
11. 'lLow indirect land-use change-risk biofuels' means biofuels, the feedstocks of which are not listed in Part A of Annex V, or are listed in Part A of Annex V, but were produced within schemes which offset indirect land use change emissions resulting from actions that reduce the demand for agricultural land and/or increase the efficiency of agro-forestry product chains or which reduce the displacement of production for purposes other than for making biofuels and which were produced in accordance with the sustainability criteria for biofuels laid down in Article 7b. Only the amount of feedstock which corresponds to the actual reduction in displacement achieved through the scheme may be considered. Such schemes may either operate as individual projects at a local level or as policy measures covering partly or entirely the territory of a Member State or a third country. Displacement of production for purposes other than for making biofuels can be reduced if the scheme achieves productivity increases within the area it covers beyond levels which would have prevailed in the absence of such productivity-promoting schemes;

(v) 'lLow indirect land-use change-risk biofuels and bioliquids' means biofuels and bioliquids, the feedstocks of which are not listed in pPart A of Annex VIII, or are listed in pPart A of Annex VIII, but were produced within schemes which offset indirect land use change emissions resulting from actions that reduce the demand for agricultural land and/or increase the efficiency of agro-forestry product chains or which reduce the displacement of production for purposes other than for making biofuels and bioliquids and which were produced in accordance with the sustainability criteria for biofuels and bioliquids laid down in Article 17. Only the amount of feedstock which corresponds to the actual reduction in displacement achieved through the scheme may be considered. Such schemes may either operate as individual projects at a local level or as policy measures covering partly or entirely the territory of a Member State or a third country.

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)., unless they are 'low indirect land use change risk biofuels and bioliquids'

(d) for the calculation of biofuels in the numerator, the share of energy from biofuels produced from cereal and other starch-rich crops, sugars and oil crops shall be no more than 7 % of the final consumption of energy in transport in the Member States in 2020;, unless they are 'low indirect land use change risk biofuels and bioliquids'.

Article 3 – paragraph 4 – subparagraph 2 – point e
(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 targets, which it shall endeavour to achieve. A referencachieve by 2020 and endeavour to increase by 2030. The value for this target is 0,5 percentage points in absolute 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*, may be counted towards the national target. Member States may set a national target lower than the reference value of 0,5 percentage points, based on one or more of the following grounds: (i) objective factors such as the limited potential for the sustainable production of biofuels produced from feedstocks and other fuels, listed in part A of Annex IX, or the limited availability of such biofuels at cost efficient prices on the market, taking into account the assessment contained in the Commission report referred to in Article 3(1) of Directive 2014/…/EU. (ii) the specific technical or climatic characteristics of the national market for transport fuels, such as the composition and condition of the road vehicle fleet; or (iii) national policies allocating commensurate financial resources to incentivising the use of electricity from renewable energy sources in transport. The Commission shall publish: – the national targets of the Member States and, where applicable, the grounds for differentiation of their national target as compared to the reference value, notified in accordance with Article 4(2) of Directive 2014/…/EU+; – a synthesis report on Member States' achievements towards their national targets; __________________ +OJ: please insert the number of this Directive.
