The Brazilian government’s decision to open the Amazon biome to sugarcane expansion reignited EU concerns regarding the sustainability of Brazil’s sugar sector, hindering the ratification of the EU-Mercosur trade...
Supply potential of lignocellulosic energy crops grown on marginal land and greenhouse gas footprint of advanced biofuels—A spatially explicit assessment under the sustainability criteria of the Renewable Energy
Advanced biofuels produced from lignocellulosic crops grown on marginal lands can become an important part of the European Union (EU) climate change mitigation strategy to reduce...
Forests are often perceived as being at the nexus of the solutions to the two main environmental crises that are plaguing our planet today: Climate change and biodiversity loss...

Challenges and Opportunities for Growing Bioenergy Crops in the EU: Linking Support Schemes With Sustainability Issues Towards Carbon Neutrality
Bioenergy from renewable resources plays a central role in the transition toward net-zero emission of carbon dioxide and low-energy circular economy. The main objective of this work was to examine...
This paper has mapped the opportunities of producing biogas from industrial wastewaters and quantified the biogas production potential of different EU industry sectors. The results show that biogas has...
The aim of this study is to obtain a better understanding of the potential of biomethane and hydrogen to contribute to the decarbonisation of the EU energy system, the impacts this will have on the gas infrastructure and the extent to which...
Maritime sector is a key asset for the World economy, but its environmental impact represent a major concern either at EU and global level. In spite of the relative good efficiency...
