Task 43 | Biomass Supply in a Nature Positive Circular Economy

Address barriers to sustainably-sourced biomass supply chains

Objective of Task 43 is to address barriers to sustainably-sourced biomass supply chains by: analyzing and quantifying current opportunities (WP1); improving supply chain efficiencies (WP2); and biohubs for high value, integrated biomass supply in sustainable and circular economies (WP3). All three work packages involve documenting strategies for adapting biomass supply to support thriving bioeconomies and contribute to multiple SDGs through improved land, forest and materials management providing renewable resources to sustainable and circular economies.
