Intelligent Energy Europe:
Cross Border Bioenergy Project 2009 - 2013
The Cross Border Bioenergy project develops a practicable tool for bioenergy companies to assess the attractiveness of European markets for cross-border investments, thereby making them less dependent on fluctuating domestic market conditions and strengthening the whole bioenergy industry.
Five different bioenergy market sectors are considered:
Project Coordinator:
European Biomass Association (AEBIOM)
Project Partners:
Austrian Biomass Association (ABA)
Danish Bioenergy Association (DI Bioenergi)
The Bioenergy Association of Finland (FINBIO)
German Bioenergy Association (BBE)
Hungarian Biomass Competence Center (HBCC)
Italian Agriforestry Energy Association (AIEL)
Latvian Bioenergy Association (LATBIONRG)
Slovak Bioenergy Association (SKBIOM)
Swedish Bioenergy Association (SVEBIO)
Consulting Partners:
Eclareon GmbH

Five different bioenergy market sectors are considered:
- Biogas for CHP and biomethane processing
- Small-scale heat for private houses and single heat customers
- Commercial biomass boilers for district heating
- Solid biomass CHP technologies
- Biofuels for transportation (biodiesel, bioethanol)

Climate-KIC
Climate-KIC is one of three Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) created in 2010 by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT). The organization's aim is to accelerate and stimulate innovation in climate change mitigation and adaptation, by integrating a network of European partners from the private, public and academic sectors. Its activities are driven by four high-level themes of climate change and it aims to provide new solutions by education, innovation and entrepreneurship. Climate-KIC operates across Europe through its co-location centres and regions.

European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EMVA) project proposals
- Setting up biogas plants on 20 livestock farms (EMVA 1 Axis)
- Setting up 14 bioethanol plants
Energy Farm Project
HBCC has developed the concept of an energy farm: a complex, sustainable agricultural unit, which produces food and energy, maintaining the harmony between the two in the meantime. It is a closed system in terms of environment, energy and logistics. The utilization of the by-products of the separate farm components results in a positive carbon emission balance.
