International Sustainability and Carbon Certification for Biomass and Bioenergy (ISCC)

GET ISO provides you International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) as an international, practical and transparent system for the certification of biomass and bioenergy.

Producing energy and fuel from biomass is one new approach to securing the worldwide supply of energy and fuel for the future.

ISCC is an advanced program and the first recognized biomass and bioenergy certification scheme.

A global scheme, the ISCC concept has been thoroughly developed, tested in a pilot phase and proofed by European and German authorities. It is experience based, efficient and effective and also covers social sustainability issues.

Applicable to all biomass ISCC helps organizations to demonstrate responsibility towards:

• Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emission (GHG)

• Sustainable land use
