The experience of EU projects in the field of power prooduction from biomassat the second meeting of the BLAZE project
Residual biomass is undoubtedly a resource that can be used for energy purposes. Its proper use can meet sustainability and environmental impact criteria as well as contribute to the achievement of the energy targets proposed by the EU strategies by 2030 and 2050. Suitable for both the production of heat and electricity with conventional combustion technologies, important R&D programs have been promoted in order to develop more efficient and economical production processes and supply chains, aimed at exploiting residual biomass for electricity production. Among the various technologies explored, gasification has certainly attracted remarkable attention for its potential to combine technical and scientific aspects with environmental and sustainability issues
These and other topics were discussed by all BLAZE partners and delegates from relevant European projects on the 10th of October 2019, during the workshop “Power production from biomass. Technological progress, perspective of development” which took place at ENEA premises in Rotondella (MT), Italy, in conjunction with the second project meeting. The workshop was the occasion to review other relevant EU project related to the activities undertaken by the BLAZE partners.
