Enough potential for biomass based energy production, but there are barriers to overcome:
1. Knowledge barriers2. Supply barriers3. Demand barriers4. Financial barriers
Barriers
Five workpackages:
WP1 Management and coordination
WP2 Best Practices and Regional Biomass studies
WP3 Development of a Standardized Biomass
Energy Model
WP4 Biomass Energy Plans
WP5 Dissemination and involvement of key actors
Project set-up
Establishment of:
- Project group
- Steering committee
- Regional Stakeholder Committee
Different ways of communication
WP1 – Management and coordination
Collection of three best practices per region
Regional studies Groene Woud;- A survey of the potential and necessary maximum production
capacity at region scale and the impact it has on sustainable regional development goals
- A location scan
- A study of possibilities for further expansion
- An analysis of legal and practical obstacles for implementation as well as solutions for this
WP2 – Best Practices and Regional Biomass Studies
Regional studies Andalucía;- Two pre feasibility studies
- for a large scal biomass plant using vine pruning residues;
- for the collection of forestry residues and usage in smaller-scale CHP boilers.
WP2 – Best Practices and Regional Biomass Studies
Regional studies Malopolska;– analysis of current resources and possible future potential;– model based problem analysis; – study of the profitability of an investment with various types of
fuel used;– comparison of different technical solutions;– assessment of the potential environmental effects using
biomass for energy production compared to traditional energy sources;
– Study on the implementation of model technical solutions starting from processing biomass at the local level.
WP2 – Best Practices and Regional Biomass Studies
Regional studies Stockholm Region;- Analysis of suitable logistic solutions (together
with energy companies)- Study on logistics of biomass substrates and
planning of adequate treatment and production sites for the increasing production of biogas.
WP2 – Best Practices and Regional Biomass Studies
WP3 contains:- A study into barriers and possibilities in biomass collection and
distribution at the local/regional level;
- A regional analysis in which treats, chances and solutions for a sustainable implementation for the model are analysed;
- The ecological, social and economic sustainability of the new model will be looked upon including the potential integration of social groups in production and logistics.
WP3 – Development of a standardized Biomass Energy Model
- Outcomes of previous WPs integrated in ready-to-implement Biomass Energy Plan (including a businessmodel);
- Design of a clear integrated management of the supply chain;
- Uniting stakeholders, engaging key actors and setting out a strategy.
WP4 – Biomass Energy Plans
