Providing the tools for developing new bio-based products: opportunities from four EU-funded Open Innovation Test Beds (OITBs)

Bioeconomy value chains are emerging all across Europe but we still have many challenges ahead. In this event, we will present the experience and the services offered by three Open Innovation Test Bed, funded by the EU, which will allow SMEs to upscale their market ideas and prototypes in the field of biomaterials.

CBE-JU will provide a closing speech relative to the status of the Bioeconomy in Europe and the scale up possibilities.

Expert workshop on Environmental sustainability of crops for bio-based industries in Europe

This expert workshop is organized by ETA Florence with the support of Horizon Europe projects MIDAS and MarginUp and it will be co-chaired by ETA Florence and by the European Commission, Unit ‘Green transitions’ of the Directorate General Research & Innovation, Directorate Healthy Planet.

A panel of experts from bio-based industries and research centres will be invited to discuss the best practices providing environmentally sustainable biomass from agricultural crops, for bio-based chemicals, materials and products. The production of food/feed or biofuels/bioenergy is out of the scope of the event.

Capturing the future: what lies ahead for biobased carbon removals

Session Description

This plenary session explains the potential of biomass-based negative emissions technologies providing with an overview on the first EU-wide voluntary framework to reliably certify high-quality carbon removals (CRCF) and the importance of creating a supportive and predictable policy framework that investors and consumers can trust. The session will present possible pathways to achieve a carbon market that is consistent, standardised, and transparent, ensuring that all available solutions receive equal support to become successful market actors. Specifically, the potential of three different CDR methodologies will be explored: Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), Biochar Carbon Removal (BCR) and biogenic CO2 capture in demolished concrete aggregate. The session will showcase these carbon removal projects from a technological perspective, while addressing public perception and possible knowledge gaps. Also, the plenary will explore whether the EU should consider carbon removal credits in the long run for the next phase of the EU ETS (Emission Trading System), but most importantly it will investigate economic models and financial mechanisms to drive investment in CDR projects.
