RFS2 Renewable Electricity Generator – Feedstock Report (Report Form ID: RFS4200): Instructions for Completing
Who must report
Generally, a Renewable Electricity Generator Feedstock report for use to produce a biogas-derived renewable fuel must comply with the reporting requirement found at 40 CFR § 80.150(c).
The Renewable Electricity Generator must submit a separate report line for each batch of biogas or RNG used as feedstock in a renewable electricity batch. For example, if five separate biogas batches were used as feedstock in a single renewable electricity batch, the reporting company would submit five report lines specific to each line of biogas.
Reporting Deadlines
Renewable Electricity Generators must submit such information or reports on monthly renewable electricity batches by the end of the subsequent calendar month.
