The ISCC EU certification was issued by International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), an independent organisation based in Germany that has been validated by the European Commission. The certificate covers the facility’s entire supply chain, from CO2 capture to the production of hydrogen, e-methanol, e-gasoline, and e-LG, and confirms that the HIF Haru Oni e-Fuels facility is capable of producing RFNBO-compliant fuels, which require hydrogen produced using 100% renewable energy and at least a 70% reduction in GHG emissions.
Diego Fettweis, Chief Commercial Officer, said: “HIF’s Haru Oni e-Fuels facility has achieved an important global milestone, becoming the first facility outside the EU to be RFNBO certified, the EU’s highest standard in sustainability criteria. We look forward to producing RFNBO fuel by 2026 and continuing leading the e-Fuels market.”
HIF Global also renewed the ISCC PLUS certification for the Haru Oni e-Fuels facility, which has been maintained since 2023. Both certifications support HIF’s expansion in the market, paving the way for a global portfolio of commercial e-Fuels facilities modelled after HIF Haru Oni.
