The Japanese government has recognized the Sustainable Biomass Program (SBP) certification for woody biomass.
SBP said in a news release the government found SBP meets the requirements necessary for confirming both the life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions of imported woody biomass under Japan’s Feed-in Tariff (FIT)/Feed-in Premium (FIP) System for Renewable Energy, and the legality and sustainability of imported wood in line with guidelines set under the Clean Wood Act.
SBP has drafted an instruction document for certificate holders to meet the Japanese requirements, and to allow SBP-certified biomass to be imported and used by Japanese power generators. The document is expected to be finalized by the end of the year.
