International Sustainability

and Carbon Certification

ISCC is a globally recognized sustainability certification system that covers all sustainable feedstocks, including agricultural and forestry biomass, biogenic wastes and residues, circular materials, and renewable resources

ISCC EU

ISCC EU is an international certification system designed to verify compliance with the sustainability and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission savings criteria set forth by the European Union's Renewable Energy Directive (RED II).

APPLY ISCC EU

MATERIALS COVERED

All types of agricultural and forest biomass, biogenic waste and residues,

non-biological renewables, and recycled carbon-based materials

SCOPE OF

APPLICATION

Sustainable fuels used for transport, electricity, heating and cooling and the production of electricity, heating and cooling from biomass in the European Union.


Covering biofuels, bioliquids, biomass fuels, advanced fuels, low ilUC risk fuels, RFNBOs*, and recycled carbon fuels*.


*Recognition pending

ACCEPTANCE OF

OTHER SCHEMES

All voluntary schemes and national schemes that are formally recognised by the European Commission in the framework of the RED II.

ISCC PLUS

ISCC PLUS is a voluntary scheme that is applicable for the bioeconomy and circular economy for food, feed, chemicals, plastics, packaging, textiles, and renewable feedstock derived from a process using renewable energy sources.


It covers the same certification requirements as ISCC EU but can be customized to meet the needs of different markets or specific applications outside the European Union countries.

APPLY ISCC PLUS

MATERIALS COVERED

All types of agricultural and forestry raw materials, bio wastes and residues,

renewable feedstocks, and fossil materials contributing to the circular economy and bioeconomy

SCOPE OF

APPLICATION

Circular and bio-based products, renewables, food, feed & biofuels outside the framework of the REDII.

ACCEPTANCE OF

OTHER SCHEMES

  • Only ISCC (ISCC certification of the whole upstream supply chain required)*.
  • Acceptance of further schemes possible upon positive benchmarking.


*Exception applicable for SAI compliant material cultivated in Germany.

ISCC CORSIA

ICAO and the aviation industry have committed themselves to carbon neutrality under the framework of the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA).


To contribute to this pioneering endeavor, ISCC developed ISCC CORSIA and ISCC CORSIA PLUS as certification systems which demonstrate compliance with the CORSIA requirements for sustainable aviation fuels.


ISCC CORSIA and ISCC CORSIA PLUS differ only in the scope of sustainability requirements that they cover.

APPLY ISCC CORSIA

MATERIALS COVERED

A wide range of agricultural and forestry raw materials, as well as waste, residues, and by-products

SCOPE OF

APPLICATION

Sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) eligible under the ICAO CORSIA scheme.

ACCEPTANCE OF

OTHER SCHEMES

  • Acceptance of all ICAO CORSIA recognized schemes (under ISCC CORSIA).
  • Acceptance of other schemes under ISCC CORSIA PLUS subject to positive benchmarking.

ISCC JAPAN FIT

The Japanese Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) sets out a system of incentives for the production of renewable electricity in Japan which includes subsidies for the procurement of eligible sustainable materials. Japan’s Ministry for Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) has published specific requirements for the certification of eligible sustainable materials under the FIT system.


The ISCC Japan FIT standard incorporates these requirements so that products certified under this standard will be eligible under Japan’s FIT system.
