Service
The best GHG value is the one that gets accepted.
The GHG value decides quota revenue, eligibility and competitiveness of a volume. We calculate it under the applicable framework, document the data basis and support the verification.
What matters
Maximum certainty for your GHG values.
- Starting point: Default values leave substantial revenue on the table because they are worse than the actual balance.The bikosigma answer: Individual calculation based on your actual plant data instead of blanket default values.
- Starting point: Individual calculations fail in the audit for lack of a plausible data basis.The bikosigma answer: Traceable data provenance for every input, compliant with the requirements of your certification scheme.
- Starting point: Changes to feedstock mix, process heat or electricity supply change the value — often unnoticed.The bikosigma answer: Ongoing update and recalculation whenever operations change.
- Starting point: Methane slip and digestate storage are captured incompletely.The bikosigma answer: Complete coverage of the relevant emission sources along the chain.
Scope
What we take on concretely.
- 01
Data capture
Plant setup, material flows, feedstock volumes and types, energy demand, auxiliaries, transport distances, process data.
- 02
Calculation
GHG balance under RED III and the biofuel sustainability ordinance, including allocation to co-products.
- 03
Plausibility
Comparison against reference values, sensitivity analysis, identification of levers.
- 04
Documentation
Verifiable calculation documentation with a source for every input value.
- 05
Audit support
Preparation and support of the review by the certification body.
- 06
Optimisation
Concrete measures to lower the GHG value and their revenue effect.
Regulatory framework
What we work against.
RED III
Calculation methodology and minimum GHG saving requirements.
Biokraft-NachV
German implementation for biofuels, including the GHG quota.
GHG quota
Crediting of reduction volumes against the greenhouse gas reduction quota.
REDcert EU · ISCC EU
System principles of the recognised certification schemes for GHG calculation, data collection and verification of individual values.
