How much bioenergy can Europe produce without harming the environment?
The purpose of this report is to assess how much biomass could technically be available for energy production without increasing pressures on the environment. As such, it develops a number of environmental criteria for bioenergy production, which are then used as assumptions for modelling the primary potential. These criteria were developed on a European scale. Complementary assessments at more regional and local scale are recommended as a follow-up of this work.
Domestic agricultural bioenergy potential estimates in the 2006 and 2012 studies
The 2012 potential estimates refer to the EU’s agricultural bioenergy potential in 2020 for 3 storylines. These storylines explore plausible bioenergy development paths from a resource efficiency perspective under three specific sets of economic and political assumptions.
