What is PAS 5420 - Sustainable bioliquid fuels about?
This new PAS has been developed to provide the liquid fuel firing industry with generic environmental and sustainability criteria for future liquid fuels for heat applications.
PAS 5420:2023 sets environmental thresholds and limits for bioliquid fuels for fixed combustion purposes to enable the decarbonization of existing off-gas-grid liquid fuel heating and hot water provision in a controlled and sustainable manner.
It will also ensure that once a fuel satisfies the standard it will continue to do so via quality assurance and control measures including offsite/onsite auditing.
Who is PAS 5420 - Sustainable bioliquid fuels for?
Distributors of bioliquid fuels.
Auditors of bioliquid fuels.
Other interested parties include:
Producers, importers and blenders of bioliquid fuels.
Liquid fuel equipment manufacturers.
Fuel and fuel equipment trade associations.
Certification/accreditation bodies and governing bodies.
What does PAS 5420 - Sustainable bioliquid fuels cover?
This PAS specifies requirements for the provision of sustainable bioliquid fuels for use in district and individual heating, hot water and cooking applications.
PAS 5420:2023 applies to bioliquid fuels derived from renewable fuel sources produced from non-virgin (waste) feedstocks that result in carbon equivalent lifecycle emissions not exceeding 0.036 kg CO2e per kWh when utilized for fixed combustion purposes.
This PAS covers:
Bioliquid fuel types deriv...
