Overview

ExpectedOutcome :

Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:

  • Advance the European scientific basis and increase technology competitiveness and technology export potential in the area of bioenergy.
  • Reduced cost and improved technical performance and efficiency of bio-based heat and/or CHP.
  • Enhance sustainability of biomass-based heat and/or CHP by addressing socioeconomic and environmental sustainability, in particular in reducing emissions and air pollution and also addressing aspects of carbon reuse and circularity, also in particular in fossil-fuel-based economic areas in transition. Scope :

Development of novel near zero-emission bio-based heat and/or CHP technologies, which allow for highly efficient use of sustainable solid biomass residues, going hand in hand with close to zero emissions for particles and harmful gaseous emissions including NOx, SOx, aromatics etc. Flexibility for different biomass fuels and power/heat ratios featuring a wide range of temperatures for heat supply as well as technological interfaces for carbon capture as well as high cost-efficiency for the consumer are to be included.

The near zero-emission solution has to be implemented and assessed for the running biomass-based heat and/or CHP system at pilot scale. Cost performance and environmental impact should be assessed and improved in comparison to state-of-the-art emissions capture and cleaning systems.

Socio-economic aspects including SDGs when applying such solutions in regions in transition from coal, lignite, peat, or other fossil fuels should be analysed and illustrated in the proposal.

Specific Topic Conditions :

Activities are expected to achieve TRL 5 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
