Seminar/webinar: Assessment of Successes and Lessons Learned for Biofuels Deployment
Free hybrid IEA Bioenergy seminar, connected to the Advanced Biofuels Conference 2023 (Gothenburg, Sweden), 21 September 2023
The Intertask project “Assessment of successes and lessons learned for biofuels deployment” has evaluated the technical, economic, societal and political reasons underlying the past and ongoing booms and busts cycles of biofuel technologies development, demonstration, deployment and replication. This has been done in order to identify technology successes and the best policy framework conditions and measures for stimulating increased future markets for production and consumption of sustainable transport biofuels.
Research questions:
- What are key factors for the success of sustainable advanced biofuel projects?
- What is required to re-stimulate vigorous biofuels development and commercialization?
This seminar presented the final results of this project.
