The Renewable Transport Fuel Obligations (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) Order 2024

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

Schedule 1 Sustainability criteria

Article 2 1 In this Schedule— “GHG emissions saving threshold” means the threshold established in accordance with paragraph 5; and “minimum GHG emissions saving” means the percentage amount determined in accordance with paragraph 7. 2 To the extent that relevant sustainable aviation fuel was produced from a feedstock listed in column (2) of the table below, that feedstock meets the sustainability criteria if it meets the conditions specified for the feedstock concerned in column (3) of the table. (1) Entry number | (2) Feedstock | (3) Conditions that the feedstock must meet in order to comply with sustainability criteria 1 | Forest biomass, including residues from forestry or wastes from forestry | The GHG emissions saving threshold and the forest criteria 2 | Residues, including processing residues, which are not residues from agriculture, aquaculture, fisheries or forestry | The GHG emissions saving threshold 3 | Wastes of biological origin, which are not wastes from agriculture, aquaculture, fisheries or forestry | The GHG emissions saving threshold 4 | Residues from agriculture or wastes from agriculture | The GHG emissions saving threshold, the land criteria and the soil carbon criteria 5 | Renewable energy of non-biomass origin or nuclear energy | The GHG emissions saving threshold 6 | Wastes of fossil origin | The GHG emissions saving threshold, the land criteria and the sustainable waste criteria 7 | Any feedstock not falling within entries 1 to 6 above | The GHG emissions saving threshold and the land criteria 3 A feedstock meets the soil carbon criteria if the supplier provides evidence, by reference to the guidance published by the Administrator under article 14(1)(f), that satisfies the Administrator that adequate monitoring or management plans are in place for the land concerned which address the impacts on soil quality and soil carbon of the harvesting of the relevant feedstock from that land. 4 A waste of fossil origin meets the sustainable waste management criteria if the supplier provides evidence, by reference to the guidance published by the Administrator under article 14(1)(f), that satisfies the Administrator that adequate monitoring or management plans are in place to address the local environmental impacts caused by sourcing or processing the waste. 5 Subject to paragraph 6, an amount of sustainable aviation fuel meets the GHG emissions saving threshold if the GHG emissions saving from its use is equal to or greater than the minimum GHG emissions saving applicable to that fuel. 6 Where the sustainable aviation fuel is produced partly from raw materials other than sustainable feedstocks, the minimum GHG emissions saving for the purposes of this Schedule applies only to the mass (in kilograms) of that fuel which is attributable to sustainable feedstocks. 7 The minimum GHG emissions saving from the use of an amount of relevant sustainable aviation fuel is the greater of— (a) where applicable, the default value determined by reference to the guidance published by the Administrator under article 14(1)(f); or (b) the actual value determined by reference to the guidance published by the Administrator under article 14(1)(f).

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
