SUMMARY OF DELEGATED ACTS ATTACHED TO RED II ON THE PRODUCTION OF RFNBOs

• Delegated act on the Production of Renewable Transport Fuels: it provides a robust methodology for calculating the carbon intensity of the electricity used to produce RFNBOs. This electricity use is divided into three scenarios:

1. Electrolyzers running directly on RES
2. Those who have a Power Purchasing Agreement (PPA)
3. Those that run on a grid with a RES penetration of at least 90%

The latest Commission proposal had stringent additionality requirements for renewable hydrogen producers.

• Delegated Act on the method for assessing GHG emission savings for certain fuels: it prescribes how to assess emission reductions from recycled carbon fuels and renewable fuels of non-biological origin. The latest proposal put forward by the Commission introduces a limit on the eligibility of industrial CO2⁵⁰ for the production of synthetic fuels until 2035. After that date, only CO2 captured from the air or from biogenic and geological sources can be used to produce synthetic fuels.
