Workshop: Promoting sustainable bioenergy production & use, 11 – 12 March, Berlin, Germany

As the EU Directive 2009/28/EC requires EU Member States to adopt national Renewable Energy Action Plans (REAPs), this workshop will focus on policy options to support sustainable bioenergy production and use in the framework of the REAPs.

The workshop will be conducted in the frame of the two EU-projects “Bioenergy Promotion” and “4Biomass”). It addresses decision-makers representing national governments and governmental authorities from the Baltic Sea Region and Central Europe, in particular those involved in the elaboration of REAPs and working on sustainability issues.
