Bioenergy: A Global Perspective provides an overview of the status and trends of bioenergy at country level through a detailed insight on biomass resources, market and development trends, policy framework, and perspectives for bioenergy development. Written by experts with deep knowledge of their country's bioenergy landscape, each chapter provides an insight into how the bioenergy sector is expected to develop, in terms of local use of biomass, what technology is likely to be deployed and how much biomass could be also available for international trade. They explore the status of national bioenergy deployment and its contribution to energy supply, including biogas and biomethane, biomass resources and trade, and identify the use of biomass in country-relevant small and/or large scale bioenergy projects. Chapters also discuss technology development perspectives and research priorities in relation to national priorities and targets set or planned for bioenergy, local biomass markets and perspectives for biomaterials, biochemicals and bioenergy. Sustainability issues, risks and benefits of bioenergy are also addressed, as well as key challenges and opportunities for bioenergy. Finally, a chapter dedicated to the international status of bioenergy presents a global perspective of all these aspects, along with recommendations for the path forward.By offering a clear, structured view of different cases around the globe, Bioenergy: A Global Perspective allows engineers and researchers involved in all stages of the biomass and bioenergy value chain to directly compare and use them as benchmark for bioenergy solutions being developed and implemented. This is especially useful for those planning or optimizing biomass supply chains. Energy entrepreneurs analysts, consultants and policy-makers can also make use of this resource, in particular its ample coverage of local policy and sustainability experiences. Presents the most important aspects for bioenergy deployment, covering a number of countries in Europe, North America, Latin America, Africa and AsiaIts highly structured content allows for direct comparison between country-level cases, including biomass resource availability, relevant projects, policy framework and support schemes, bioenergy priorities and targetAddresses sustainability issues and the complex interactions in the biomass sector, such as competing uses of biomass for energy, chemicals, food and feed INDICE: IntroductionGlobal Status and Perspectives for BioenergySection I - EuropeStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in AustriaStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in DenmarkStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in FinlandStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in FranceStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in GermanyStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in ItalyStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in the NetherlandsStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in RomaniaStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in SpainStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in SwedenStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in the UKStatus and perspectives for bioenergy in the UkraineSection II.
