SBP Annual Report 2016 Published

The Sustainable Biomass Program (SBP) has today published its first annual report. The report covers the calendar year 2016, and is available at: www.sbp-cert.org/documents/annual-reports.

Carsten Huljus, SBP Chief Executive Officer, commented: “The report provides an easy-to-follow guide to SBP, which we hope helps to communicate what is a fairly complex certification system. The performance review takes a good look at the key outputs of 2016. A lot has been achieved in a short period and we are grateful to all our stakeholders for the invaluable support they have given to the process.

The current governance arrangements are described alongside the critical role of independent oversight. In linking good governance and independent oversight we aim to deliver a credible and robust certification system.

“I trust our first annual report will make a good base against which we will be able to monitor and report on our performance and progress in the coming years”.
