inig Oil And Gas Institute - National Research Institute has been working for over 70 years for sustainable management of hydrocarbon raw materials and fuels as well as Poland's energy security. It conducts works related to crude oil and natural gas, from exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbon deposits, through storage, transport, distribution and use of natural gas, crude oil and petroleum products, to development and improvement of liquid fuel production technology. It carries out works in the field of, among others, assessment of prospects for exploration of crude oil and natural gas, technological assessment of crude oil, quality control of petroleum products, biocomponents and environmental protection. INIG - PIB is the organizer and operator of the only Polish certification system for the sustainable production of biofuels and bioliquids, the KZR INiG System. The system was approved by the European Commission in relation to demonstrating compliance with the sustainability criteria, in accordance with the Directives of the European Parliament and of the Council 98/70 / EC and Directive 2009/28 / EC. The purpose of the System is to ensure that the production of biofuels and bioliquids is carried out with respect for the natural environment, in particular, it does not cause excessive land exploitation, and biofuels show a high reduction of life cycle greenhouse gas emissions relative to the fossil equivalent. Certification covers all entities in the biofuels and bioliquids supply chain, from the agricultural producer, waste site, through biomass processors, trading companies, to suppliers of final products on the market. Because the scope of the KZR INiG System is global, certification can be extended to any entity, irrespective of where they operate, also from countries outside the European Union.
