Certified Biogenic liquefied petroleum gas*
Biogenic liquefied petroleum gas* from Tyczka Trading
Biogenic LPG* is obtained from biomass and causes up to 88% less CO2 emissions during production than conventional LPG.**
As biogenic LPG* does not differ from conventional LPG in terms of its chemical composition, the switch is particularly easy: it can be transported and used in the same way as conventional LPG.
Rely on biogenic LPG from Tyczka Trading, because we have received the ISCC PLUS certificate for our biogenic liquefied petroleum gas*.
ISCC Plus Certificate
What does it mean?
The ISCC PLUS certification attests to the transparent supply chain for biogenic liquefied gas* and thus constitutes a genuine quality seal. Only companies that can demonstrate a traceable value chain are awarded the ISCC PLUS certificate.
Transparent supply chain: A biogenic share of up to 100% can be attributed to our liquefied gas on a bookkeeping (mass-balance) basis. The certified biogenic quantities used from renewable raw materials are documented and traced along the value chain within the framework of mass balancing. In this context, biogenic and conventional feedstocks may be physically mixed; allocation is effected on a bookkeeping (mass-balance) basis.*
Trading and storage: The certified biogenic quantities and their sustainability characteristics are documented and allocated on a bookkeeping (mass-balance) basis. Allocation takes place within a mass balance system in which certified and non-certified materials may be physically mixed.*
Advantages of ISCC PLUS-certified Biogenic LPG*
Portfolio expansion: Our biogenic LPG* is produced from renewable raw materials. This allows you to expand your portfolio.
Image boost: The use of certified energy sources strengthens the brand image and demonstrates responsibility towards the environment and society.
GModG and legal compliance: GModG and state law-relevant heating customers benefit from the ability to fulfil legal requirements for the use of renewable energies. Mass balancing is also verified by the ISCC PLUS certificate. Mass balancing takes place both in production and in sales.*
Explanations
*Our biogenic liquefied gas is supplied via an ISCC PLUS-certified supply chain. The biogenic feedstocks used and their sustainability characteristics are documented along the supply chain and assigned in a verifiable manner. Compliance with the requirements is regularly audited by independent bodies. For further information, please refer to the English original document “ISCC Traceability and Chain of Custody,” in particular Section 3.3 “Sustainability Declarations” and Section 3.4 “Traceability Requirements.”
Within a certified mass balance system, sustainable and non-sustainable materials may be physically mixed. The associated sustainability characteristics and quantities remain allocated in the quantity accounting and are documented, monitored, and controlled along the supply chain. For further information, please refer to the English original document “ISCC Traceability and Chain of Custody,” Section 4.4 “Mass Balance.”
Further information on the certification criteria
** The CO₂ balance covers production and transport up to the Tyczka Energy storage facility. Transport to the customer is not included. The determination of the GHG emissions reduction is made by comparing the ISCC-certified GHG emission values provided for the respective delivery with the fossil reference value for liquefied gas according to the GEMIS database (66.315 g CO₂e/MJ). The basis consists of emissions from the production and provision of BioLPG up to its departure from the refinery to the Tyczka Energy tank storage facility (well-to-tank). The actual GHG reduction depends on the delivery and, for quantities procured to date, has ranged between 80.53% and 88.75%.
