Abstract Text The goal of this project was to develop a web-based tool for the interactive evaluation of biofuels sustainability against the standard of the Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels. In this document we describe the central concepts of the RSB GHG Tool which is one module within the RSB tool. It allows the modular assessment of GHG emissions for numerous biofuel pathways with different methodologies: RSB, EU Renewable Energy Directive (EU RED), Ordinance on mineral oil tax (CH), Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS/USA), and U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS2/USA).
