Organizer
IEA Bioenergy Task 45
Content Description
The IEA Bioenergy Task 45 aims to build a body of knowledge to equip the community of practice to undertake well-informed studies on the sustainability of bioenergy. This includes the development, demonstration and refinement of metrics, methods and tools for the quantification of GHG emissions related to bioenergy production and use.
The topics covered in the webinar will include
- a discussion of potential reasons for contrasting findings about the climate effects of forest bioenergy (Task 45 has published a paper on this topic: Applying a science-based systems perspective to dispel misconceptions about climate effects of forest bioenergy)
- a comparison of selected calculation tools for bioenergy pathways (a publication from a related IEA Bioenergy intertask project)
- a presentation on existing tools and illustrative examples which shall provide orientation for stakeholders that are new to the topic.
Program
The webinar will be moderated by Floor van der Hilst, Utrecht University, Netherlands
Presentations by:
- Miguel Brandão, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden
- Otávio Cavalett, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway
