European foreword
This document (prEN 16214-1:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 383
“Sustainably produced biomass for energy applications”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 16214-1:2012+A1:2019.
In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:
The document has been updated to be in accordance with the current edition of the sustainability
criteria of the European Commission Directive 2018/EU/2001, the recast of the Renewable Energy
Directive (RED II). In particular, the RED II introduces sustainability criteria for forest biomass and the
directive has also been extended to include solid biomass.
This European Standard comprises the following parts:
— prEN 16214-1, Sustainability and greenhouse gas emission saving criteria for biomass for energy
applications — Principles, criteria, indicators and verifiers — Part 1: Terminology;
— CEN/TS 16214-2, Sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids for energy
applications — Principles, criteria, indicators and verifiers — Part 2: Conformity assessment
including chain of custody and mass balance;
— prEN 16214-3, Sustainability and greenhouse gas emission saving criteria for biomass for energy
applications — Principles, criteria, indicators and verifiers — Part 3: Sustainability criteria related
to environmental aspects;
— EN 16214-4, Sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels and bioliquids for energy
applications — Principles, criteria, indicators and verifiers — Part 4: Calculation methods of the
greenhouse gas emission balance using a life cycle analysis approach.

Introduction
In December 2018, the recast Renewable Energy Directive 2018/2001/EU (RED II) entered into force,
as part of the Clean energy for all Europeans package, helping the EU to meet its emissions reduction
commitments under the Paris Agreement. In RED II, the overall EU target for Renewable Energy
Sources consumption by 2030 has been raised to 32 %.
The RED II defines a series of sustainability and greenhouse gas savings criteria that biomass for energy
applications must comply with to be eligible for financial support by public authorities. Some of these
criteria are the same as in the original RED, while others are new or reformulated. In particular, the
RED II introduces sustainability for forestry feedstocks as well as greenhouse gas savings criteria for
solid and gaseous biomass fuels.
It is widely accepted that sustainability at large encompasses environmental, social and economic
aspects. However, this standard series only cover a selection of environmental aspects since the
standard series has been developed with the aim to assist EU Member States and economic operators
with the implementation of RED II. This standard series is therefore limited to certain aspects relevant
for a sustainability assessment of biomass produced for energy applications. This means that
compliance with this standard series or parts thereof alone does not substantiate claims of the biomass
being produced sustainably.
