Promoting the penetration of agrobiomass heating in European rural areas
European stakeholders from the entire agrobiomass value chain for energy gathered from February 25th to 27th in the Barcelona municipality of Vilafranca del Penedès at a demonstration workshop within the European project AgroBioHeat. According to Manolis Karampinis, research associate at Centre for Research and Technology Hellas and coordinator of the AgroBioHeat project, Vilafranca has been chosen as the venue for
From February 2020 to April 2020, the AgroBioHeat project progresses to an important milestone for gathering significant insights on social understanding about the use of agrobiomass for heating. AgroBioHeat is conducting a web-based survey aiming to capture the public opinion on agrobiomass heating. Apart from eliciting existing perceptions and stakeholders’ intentions to act, the survey aims to identify the current

2020 has started and the AgroBioHeat project is already planning a lot of interesting activities in order to promote sustainable agrobiomass heating! Our project partners will be attending two major energy and agricultural fairs in Nantes, France and Thessaloniki, Greece at the end of the month, so be sure to pay a visit at their stand in order to learn
From October 2019 to January 2020, the project AgroBioHeat opens the call in several countries (Croatia, France, Greece, Romania, Spain and Ukraine) to support new icebreaker initiatives for the consumption of agrobiomass (agricultural or agroindustrial biomass residues, or energy crops) for heat generation in small facilities (<1 MW thermal). The key is that the installation is efficient, that the technology

The second project meeting of the AgroBioHeat project, funded by the Horizon 2020 programme, was held last week (3 – 5 July 2019) in Zagreb, hosted by the Green Energy Cooperative – ZEZ. The overall aim of the project is to promote heating solutions on agrobiomass in rural areas of Europe. “The AgroBioHeat project aims to transform the rural heating
Substitution of fossil fuels with agrobiomass can be a very promising option for the decarbonisation of the heating sector, especially in rural areas. AgroBioHeat is a new EU project funded through Horizon 2020 that aims to provide a comprehensive platform for overcoming barriers and support the market uptake of agrobiomass heating. Background The heating sector is often overlooked in the
