Do you grow, sell or burn non-wood fuels?

If you grow, sell or burn non-wood fuels, then the Sustainable Fuel Register (SFR) is going to make your fuel sustainability reporting a lot simpler.

The SFR is an easy route to registering your non-wood fuels to meet RHI sustainability criteria, ultimately saving you time, money and improving your route to market. If you produce or trade non-wood fuels then the SFR will provide you with the ability to prove that your fuels are sustainable and open the market up for you in a way that hasn’t been possible until now. Do you have a boiler that can burn non-wood fuel?  Using the SFR to source your fuel will mean that you do not have to self-report your sustainability, making the process so much easier and quicker.

The SFR also increases the traceability and integrity of sustainable fuels and provides the biomass industry with greater value. By registering fuels transferred from producer to trader to end user, a complete chain of custody is established from field to furnace. Not only does it provide peace of mind to those in the fuel chain, but also means that there is less chance that fuel will be falsely accounted for, or an authorisation number used illegally.

If you are interested in how the SFR could work for you, come and listen to presentations from the team and talk to them directly at:
