We, European Associations representing industries from the food and animal feed sectors, take the position that molasses, low-green syrup and other non-extractable sugars should not be included in Annex IX of the Renewable Energy Directive, in the context of its ongoing review due by June 2021. In view of the ongoing stakeholders consultation prepared by E4Tech, we urge the interested parties and authorities not to include sugar products in the Annex IX.
