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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

  1. 01

    Data capture

    Plant setup, material flows, feedstock volumes and types, energy demand, auxiliaries, transport distances, process data.

  2. 02

    Calculation

    GHG balance under RED III and the biofuel sustainability ordinance, including allocation to co-products.

  3. 03

    Plausibility

    Comparison against reference values, sensitivity analysis, identification of levers.

  4. 04

    Documentation

    Verifiable calculation documentation with a source for every input value.

  5. 05

    Audit support

    Preparation and support of the review by the certification body.

  6. 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.

A 30-minute conversation is usually enough to clarify which GHG values your biomethane can reliably achieve.
