In order to support the development of biofuel supply chains, Italian laws, in line with European directives, mandates providers of petrol and diesel fuels to supply a minimum quota of biofuels. The share of biofuels in consumption is calculated based on the total calorific value of petrol and diesel supplied in the previous year.

To monitor the quantity of biofuels supplied to the Italian market, certificates known as "Certificati Immissione in Consumo (CIC)" are created for each 10 Gcal consumed. These certificates are tradable through a dedicated platform.
