Biography

Biljana Kulisic, PhD, is policy officer at the Unit C2 Decarbonization and sustainability of energy sources within European Commission Directorate-General for Energy. Biljana has over 20 years of experience in concerted policy and assessing socio-economic aspects of bioenergy that she brings to the European Commission. She is looking how scientific concepts can be transformed to the evidence-based policies in biomass use for the climate change adaptation and mitigation. The focus is to use biomass for bioenergy in its best and only when needed, while keeping the eye on the sustainable and circular bioeconomy. She has been involved in work with IEA Bioenergy TCP since 2005, now representing the European Commission. For this session, it is important to highlight that biomethane, either as biogas or its upgraded version, falls under her files.
