This law establishes the framework for accounting the energy content of poor stillage derived from sugar plants post two sugar extractions. It specifies the percentage of energy content that can be counted towards renewable energy targets for transportation, specifically 40% for category 1 and 60% for category 2 in accordance with the customs code. The law aims to incentivize the use of renewable energy by providing clarity on the energy contributions of certain by-products from sugar production.
