Project Abstract

The aim of BioAssess is to develop and test a new framework to analyse the environmental, economic and social impacts of biomass resource use for production of energy (transport and heat) and biobased products in the bioeconomy in Ireland. The project will develop and assess a number of value chains with the Framework, considering the source of biomass, its end use, where it is being diverted from and what it is displacing, to identify unintended consequences to better inform scheme and policy development.
