Objectives

• Foster transregional knowledge sharing to exploit the biomass potential of both the rural and the industrialised North West European (NWE) regions through promotion of best practice examples.
• Reduce territorial disparities in regulations and policies to stimulate the development of an harmonised biomass based renewable energy policy.
• Reduce technological barriers to the development of an efficient value chain for the conversion and optimisation of biomass to energy and subsequent recovery of residues from biomass conversion processes.
• Evaluate the sustainability and economic aspects of various biomass conversion technologies.
• Boost local economies and contribute to the development of a green, low carbon economy in NWE.
• Inform local, regional and European stakeholders on the potential of biomass feedstock and biomass conversion technologies in achievement of the EU 2020 renewable energy targets.
• Raise public support through a range of communication tools and activities.
