Content Description

The series of events „Highlights of Bioenergy Research" was launched by the Federal Ministry of Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK) with the aim of creating a platform for all experts and stakeholders in this area.

Within the framework of the IEA research cooperation, Austria is intensively involved in various tasks of the Technology Collaboration Program (TCP) Bioenergy. The aim is, among other things, to contribute to the decarbonization of heat and power supply, for example by substituting fossil fuels in
industry and the development of integrated biorefineries.

Current developments and results from the tasks are presented in „Highlights of Bioenergy  Research". You can expect exciting lectures on biobased value chains for a circular bioeconomy, integrated biorefineries for the decarbonization of industry, sustainable biomass CHP plants and much
more. Transnational research and development projects for the sustainable use of bioenergy from the ERA-NET Bioenergy represent another important focus.
