Biohubs are increasingly seen as essential to the cost-effective deployment of bioenergy at scale for decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors like heavy-duty vehicles and heat. The term biohub refers to an intermediate place...

The idea that liquefied natural gas (LNG) can help mitigate the climate impacts of the maritime shipping sector rests on the assumptions that ships can switch to bio and e-LNG...

Aviation alternative fuels are perceived as an effective short-term mean to decarbonise our flights. Sustainable aviation fuels from algae have been recently approved for commercial...

The aviation sector has grown at a significant pace in recent years, and despite improvements in aircraft efficiency, the sector’s impact on climate change is a growing concern. To address this...

The objective of this work was to assess the environmental performances of advanced biofuels produced from perennial energy crops (miscanthus and willow) grown in bioenergy buffer strips (BBS) and compare...

Food Waste because of its composition is considered as a promising feedstock for the production of biofuels and in particular bioethanol. From a technical point of view, the production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic materials is a well-studied...

The potential of palm-oil biofuels to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared with fossil fuels is increasingly questioned. So far, no measurement-based GHG budgets were...

This article presents results of a European Commission Joint Research Centre study to analyse the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and energy efficiency of various options for alternative aviation...

Algae-based biofuels and bioproducts offer great promise in contributing to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office’s vision of a thriving and sustainable bioeconomy fueled by innovative...
