    About the standard

    The scheme takes both the origin (forest management or agricultural) and the supply chain information (energy and carbon) into account. It is also aligned with national regulations for sourcing sustainable biomass such as the Dutch Stimulation of Sustainable Energy Production program.

    The Green Gold Label scheme relies on a unique track record as one of the earliest biomass certification schemes and is applied worldwide. The GGL standard covers a wide range of different areas and scopes. Specific standards are applicable depending on the exact nature your business, such as:

    • Chain of custody
    • Forest management sources
    • Agricultural sources
    • Generators/utilities (the energy producers)

    The GGL standards also cover energy and carbon data that must be provided throughout the supply chain. Transaction certificates are issued for transactions between GGL certified companies in the supply chain. GGL audits are carried out annually. Control Union Certifications (CUC) is accredited by the RvA (Dutch Accreditation Council) for the GGL scheme. CUC has certified companies across the globe against the scheme’s requirements.
