Every three years IEA Bioenergy organizes a conference to present the main developments in the bioenergy field. After successful events in 2012 (Vienna), 2015 (Berlin), 2018 (San Francisco) and 2021 (online), we are now teaming up with BBEST – the Brazilian Bioenergy Science and Technology Conference – which is held every three years in Brazil.

Organized by the Bioenergy Research Program (BIOEN/FAPESP), the IEA Bioenergy Technology Collaboration Program, and the Bioenergy Society (SBE), the BBEST – IEA Bioenergy 2024 Conference will bring important topics such as responsible land use and agricultural productivity; feedstock mobilization; sustainability of bioenergy pathways; biofuels for air, sea and road transport; heat and power from biomass and waste; renewable gases; the future of biorefineries; the use of biogenic carbon; and strategies for the circular carbon economy.
