This event provided an opportunity to signal the completion of three bioenergy projects BEn, BioEnerGIS and MAKE-IT-BE. After three years of developing guidance material, creating tools, stimulating and implementing regional and local partnerships in bioenergy, the three Intelligent Energy Europe co-funded projects mentioned above have concluded their work. Together, they present a wealth of support for bioenergy planning and implementation in Europe. The projects have documented innovative case studies, outlined a methodology for biomass planning and developed tools to assess the energy potential from biomass resources – mostly waste from forestry, agriculture and livestock as a resource. These results can help to drive and support the green economy agenda in Europe, by rolling out more bioenergy actions across the continent. Presentations and other resources from the event are available online.
