Biofuel and biomass
certification
As the world seeks alternatives to fossil fuels, the demand for biofuels and biomass residues is skyrocketing. At the same time, legal sustainability requirements are becoming increasingly stringent. This is where certification comes in.
Need for reliable resources
At Partners for Innovation, we understand the critical need for reliable and sustainable resources. We help companies and governments meet the strictest regulations and highest quality standards.
Certification for Renewable Fuels
The US Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS2) program, part of the American Energy Act of 2005 and expanded in 2007 under the Energy Independence and Security Act, aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and strengthen the renewable fuel industry. We perform independent audits for European biofuel producers seeking to enter the US market, in collaboration with Control Union Certifications since 2013.
During our Engineering Review, we verify that biofuel producers meet all the RFS2 program requirements. Upon a positive review, the producer is certified and can export to the US. Additionally, producers can subscribe to a Quality Assurance Plan for regular audits and quality monitoring.
Why choose Partners for Innovation?
