Abstract:
The Biofuel Emission Reduction Estimator Scheme (BERES) is an integrated assessment method for
estimating carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions related to biofuel production. It
includes three different phases of crop production processes within lifecycle analysis and is in line
with EU-mandated calculations. The phases are 1) land conversion; 2) crop production; and 3) postharvest
commodity transport and processing.
