EUバイオエコノミーにおける認証制度・ラベル(CSL)の信頼性と機能性について、バリューチェーン全体のステークホルダーへのアンケートと専門家インタビューで分析した研究。CSLは持続可能性保証に不可欠とされる一方、制度の乱立、保証体制の弱さ、利害相反、透明性不足、価値創出の限定などが信頼性を損なうと指摘された。ステークホルダー間で認識が異なることも示し、7つの相互関連要因を特定して改善の方向性を提示する。
English
Survey and expert interviews examine stakeholder views on the credibility and functioning of certification schemes and labels (CSLs) in the EU bioeconomy. While CSLs are seen as essential for sustainability assurance, concerns include proliferation, weak assurance, conflicts of interest, limited transparency, and insufficient value creation. Perceptions differ across stakeholder groups, and seven interrelated factors for improvement are identified.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本でもバイオマス燃料の持続可能性認証(ISCC等)が調達・開示実務で重要性を増しており、認証制度の信頼性・透明性に関する本知見は、SSBJや有報でのサプライチェーン開示を検討する日本企業にとって示唆に富む。
In the global GX context
As global disclosure frameworks (CSRD, ISSB) increasingly reference certification and third-party assurance for biomass and supply chains, this study offers empirical insight into credibility gaps that regulators and standard-setters must address to ensure reliable sustainability claims.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:認証制度の信頼性評価にISEAL原則を適用した実証研究として、開示インフラ研究に有用な枠組みを提供する。
🏢実務担当者:バイオマス調達やサステナブル認証を活用する企業は、認証選択時のデューデリジェンスやステークホルダー対話の重要性を再認識できる。

📄 Abstract(原文)
Certification schemes and labels (CSLs) are essential instruments for promoting sustainability across borders and managing risks in biomass supply chains. Their relevance in the EU bioeconomy is growing, yet concerns regarding their credibility and functioning persist. Existing studies on these issues are often fragmented and case-specific. The experiences and views of stakeholders across various biobased value chains regarding the credibility and performance of CSL are rarely reported. This study examined stakeholder perspectives across the bio-based value chain to identify critical factors influencing CSLs’ credibility and functioning via an online survey (58–82 responses per survey question), followed by seven in-depth expert interviews. Credibility and functioning of CSLs were assessed using the ISEAL credibility principles. Most respondents consider CSLs essential for providing sustainability assurance. However, they raised crucial concerns that are perceived to undermine CSL functioning and credibility: proliferation of CSLs, weak assurance systems, impartiality of the system, limited value creation and inadequate impact demonstration. The findings show that perceptions of CSL credibility differ across stakeholder groups and between CSLs in general and specific schemes. Our study identified interrelated factors on which CSLs could act to address the concerns raised: (1) imbalances in stakeholder representation; (2) conflict of interest, particularly dependencies between auditors, CSL owners, and certificate holders; (3) lack of transparency in the certification process; (4) lack of collaboration amongst CSLs and value chain actors; (5) limited scope and low ambition; (6) limited demonstration of measurable progress; and (7) limited value creation for producers. By examining these perspectives, our findings highlight opportunities for targeted improvements for CSLs and greater collaboration among stakeholders.
