IEA Bioenergy Conference 2015
IEA Bioenergy Conference 2015
Realising the world’s sustainable bioenergy potential
27th – 29th October 2015
The IEA Bioenergy Conference 2015 (www.ieabioenergy2015.org) provided more than 300 stakeholders from industry, academia and policy with an insight into recent research and market developments in bioenergy. All topics covered by IEA Bioenergy and by partner organisations like FAO, GBEP and UNDP were addressed. A special section was dedicated to industrial developments and applications.
Presentations responded to challenges in all steps in bioenergy value chains from biomass production and conversion to energy carriers to different end uses. Cross- cutting topics like sustainability (GHG emissions), socio-economic issues and trade were also discussed, and policy makers could benefit from the latest recommendations by a global scientific energy technology network.
Participants received the latest information on promising bioenergy technologies and learnt about bioenergy applications with a special insight into German developments. Outstanding achievements and results in the bioenergy sector were shown through over 50 visual presentations. The conference was accompanied by technical excursions to four different bioenergy applications in Berlin and Brandenburg.
