After two years of careful preparation, SUSTAINABLE RESOURCES Verification Scheme (SURE) launched operations already back in November 2020. SURE gives all economic operators in the bioenergy sector a viable solution to demonstrate the sustainability of electricity and heat production from biomass and thus to comply with the legal requirements of RED II.
Until SURE is recognised by the EU Commission as a voluntary certification scheme for demonstrating compliance with RED II, SURE gives companies in the bioenergy sector the opportunity to voluntarily provide proof of sustainability and thus get ready for the implementation of RED II. Interested certification bodies that would like to seek approval for auditing bioenergy companies under the SURE-EU standard are asked to submit their application documents.
