RSB Global Fuel Certification
RSB Fossil Fuel Baseline Calculation Methodology
Reference code: RSB-STD-01-003-02 Version: 2.1 Date: May 2011RSB's Fossil Fuel Baseline Calculation Methodology is intended to encompass the calculation of the fossil fuel baseline for gasoline, diesel and jey kerosene. The fossil fuel baseline contained in this document is to be used by RSB Participating Operators when demonstrating compliance with Principle 3 on GHG Emissions.
DownloadRSB GHG Calculation Methodology
Reference code: RSB-STD-01-003-01 Version: 2.3 Date: August 2017RSB's GHG Calculation Methodology is intended to define the GHG calculation methodology to be used by participating operators in the RSB certification scheme when calculating GHG emissions for the scope of their operations. This standard describes the methodology for calculating GHG emissions as embedded in the RSB Greenhouse Gas Calculator Tool. Furthermore, the intent of this standard is to ensure that all operators participating in the RSB certification systems use the same, standardised methodology to calculate GHG emissions
DownloadRSB Low ILUC Risk Biomass Criteria and Compliance Indicators
Reference code: RSB-STD-04-001 Version: 0.3 Date: June 2015RSB Low ILUC Risk Biomass Criteria and Compliance Indicators are voluntary addition for operators looking to demonstrate that their operations have a low iLUC risk, i.e. are unlikely to cause any displacement of an equivalent biomass production to another location. The RSB Criteria and Compliance Indicators for low iLUC risk biomass and biofuels are based on the Low Indirect Impact Biofuels (LIIB) Methodology and were developed in collaboration with Ecofys.
DownloadRSB Principles & Criteria
Reference code: RSB-STD-01-001 Version: 3 Date: November 2016The RSB Principles & Criteria is the core document of the RSB Standard sets out the general requirements for operations producing, converting and processing biomass, advanced fuels, products and biomaterials. This standard applies to all operators taking part in the RSB certification system as individual or groups of economic operators (e.g. a group of farmers), with the exception of traders who are not involved in the production, processing or transformation of biomass or any of its derivatives.
DownloadRSB Procedure for Communication and Claims
Reference code: RSB-PRO-50-001 Version: 3.5 Date: November 2020RSB's Procedure on Communications and Claims sets out the requirements Participating Operators must meet when using the RSB trademarks (e.g. RSB name, RSB logo, RSB Strapline, RSB on-product label) and compliance claims in association with certified products (“product-related claims”), as well as in general communication.
DownloadRSB Procedure for Participating Operators
Reference code: RSB-PRO-30-001 Version: 3.2 Date: May 2020The RSB Standard for Participating Operators sets out the conditions operators shall meet when taking part in RSB certification systems. Operators taking part in RSB certification systems are referred to as ‘Participating Operators’ (POs). POs have control over, and take full responsibility for, all operations, processes, activities and sites in connection with putting RSB standards in place at all times. This standard also describes the role of the RSB Secretariat.
DownloadRSB Procedure for Risk Management
Reference code: RSB-PRO-60-001 Version: 3.2 Date: January 2020RSB's Procedure for Risk Management aims to make sure that Participating Operators identify, evaluate, mitigate and monitor the risk(s) related to their operations while putting in place RSB standards and procedures.
DownloadRSB Procedure for Traceability (Chain of Custody)
Reference code: RSB-PRO-20-001 Version: 3.2 Date: May 2020RSB's Procedure for Traceability aims to ensure that Participating Operators put in place a robust and transparent chain of custody system that provides traceability for the RSB Certified Material acquired from and/or delivered to other operators in the supply chain.
DownloadRSB Standard for Advanced Fuels
Reference code: RSB-STD-01-010 Version: 2.3 Date: February 2020The RSB Standard for Advanced Fuels describes the requirements for the production of advanced fuels, including: • Fuels from biogenic end-of-life products and production residues • Recycled carbon fuels from non-biogenic end-of-life products and production residues • Renewable liquid and gaseous fuels of non-biological origin This standard is applicable to fuel producers, traders, processors and transporters in any region of the world – excluding the EU (if you are within the EU or seeking to trade with it, please use our RSB EU RED Fuel Standard).
