6th European Conference Biomass PowerON

Date: 10 October 2024
Location: Copenhagen, Denmark
 
After last year successful edition in Stockholm, with over 110 biomass specialists and nearly 30 excellent speakers, we have pleasure to invite you to the 6th European Conference Biomass PowerON taking place on 9-10 October 2024. This year we are moving to Copenhagen, Denmark.
 
In the face of an energy crisis and rising interest in cleaner energy sources Europe is turning to possibilities that biomass and pellets offer. Change of the heat and power feedstock is crucial from the point of view of European energy security, as well as climate change mitigation. This year, among other topics, we are focusing on usage of biomass and pellets for heat and power generation, role of bioenergy in decarbonisation as well as on perspective of forest industry on the higher demand for wood biomass and pellets. Also, as many discussions are on within EU in terms of policies and
regulations for green solutions and biomass’ place among them, we will be discussing the influence of legislation on the bioenergy sector.
