Amendment to GHG Quota Act sets precedent for biofuel fraud prevention

The Union for the Promotion of Oil and Protein Plants (UFOP) has welcomed the measures to tighten fraud prevention provided for in the draft bill on the further development of the GHG reduction quota.
If confirmation of such an audit is not provided, or if an on-site inspection confirms a suspicion of fraud, these biofuel quantities cannot be counted towards the GHG quota obligation in accordance with the draft law.
These measures are not least a result of the refusal of Chinese biofuel producers to investigate suspected fraud.
The necessity of this is confirmed once again by a recent suspicion of fraud in Malaysia involving mislabelled waste oil from palm oil.
UFOP has been highlighting the importance of fraud prevention in the development of the raw material composition for biodiesel and HVO.
