IEA Bioenergy Workshop: Opportunities of bioenergy and biofuels in developing economies
This workshop aims to show examples of bioenergy and biofuel related opportunities in developing economies, both for the production of (local) energy and for providing economic, social and environmental co-benefits. It will also provide guidance on tools to accelerate clean energy transitions and improved energy access in emerging economies.
Organizer
The workshop is organised by the IEA Bioenergy Technology Cooperation Programme and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO).
Content Description
The workshop will consist of three separate sessions:
- The first session will provide examples how clean energy transitions and improved energy access in emerging economies can be supported.
- The second session will consider opportunities for sustainable biomass supply and its co-benefits, e.g., in landscape restoration, improved livelihoods or cleaner air.
- The third session looks into opportunities of sustainable biofuel production in developing economies to produce transport fuels and clean cooking fuels.
Each session will have keynote presentations, followed by a panel discussion. Interactive tools will be used to gather input from the audience.
