Nachhaltigkeitskriterien für die Herstellung von Biokraftstoffen und flüssigen Biobrennstoffen für Energieanwendungen - Grundsätze, Kriterien, Indikatoren und Prüfer - Teil 3: Biodiversität und Umweltaspekte im Zusammenhang mit Naturschutzzwecken; Deutsche Fassung EN 16214-3:2012+A1:2017
Overview
DIN EN 16214-3 defines procedures, criteria and indicators to provide the required evidence for: - production of raw material in areas for nature protection purposes; - harvesting of raw material from non-natural highly biodiverse grasslands; and - cultivation and harvesting on peatland. This European Standard specifies requirements relevant for the provision of evidence by economic operators that the production, cultivation and harvesting of raw materials is in accordance with legal or other requirements concerning the areas mentioned above. This European Standard is applicable to production, cultivation and harvesting of biomass for biofuels and bioliquids production. This document (EN 16214-3:2012+A1:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 383 "Sustainably produced biomass for energy applications", the secretariat of which is held by NEN (Netherlands). The national committee responsible for the standard is Working Committee NA 172-00-10 AA "Nachhaltigkeitskriterien für Biomasse" ("Sustainability criteria for biomass") at DIN Standards Committee Principles of Environmental Protection (NAGUS).
