Metadata

Methodology:: Data are model results that were produced under the Renewables bioenergy projects (2005, 2006). Models used are: 1) For agriculture (EU-25 except Luxembourg, Cyprus, Malta): Animlib scenario of the CAPSIM model with modified yields to account for the high share of environmentally orientated farming; 2) For agriculture (Germany and France, only): HEKTOR model to estimate the CO2 permit price effect for agriculture.

Additional information

The additional available land due to bioenergy prices being above the food commodity prices was calculated for Germany and France with the HEKTOR model. For all other countries, the available land area was calculated with the CAPSIM model.
