biomass greenhouse gas
The rapid expansion of industrialization and continuous population growth have caused a steady increase in energy consumption. Despite using renewable energy, such as bioethanol, to replace fossil...
Land-based mitigation is essential in reducing net carbon emissions. Yet, the attribution of carbon fluxes remains highly uncertain, in particular for the forest-rich region of Eastern Europe (incl...
The Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR) provides emissions time series from 1970 until 2022 for GHGs for all countries for all anthropogenic sectors, with the exception...
Towards an integrated decision-making support framework for the sustainable production and use of biomass
The decision-making landscape to maximize the use of sustainable biomass resources, and achieve long-term environmental and socioeconomic benefits, is complex with a high level of uncertainty in biomass supply and logistics, technical...
This Regulation lays down operational guidance to be applied by Member States to ensure a robust and harmonised implementation of the risk-based sustainability criteria for the production of biofuels, bioliquids and biomass...
A side-event at COP27 focused on the role of bio-based industries in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, for example, by diverting biomass from landfills, while fostering economic competitiveness, creating jobs...
The International Energy Agency released its World Energy Outlook 2022. The report, in part, predicts increased global use of solid bioenergy through 2050, particularly...
Despite an increasing attention on the role of land in meeting countries’ climate pledges under the Paris Agreement, the range of estimates of carbon fluxes from Land Use, Land-Use Change...
This IRENA report provides an overview of the challenges and related policy measures required to scale up the deployment of key bioenergy applications. It assesses potential sustainability aspects and highlights...
