Objective Objectives The objectives of the project include: - at each of the four selected sites (in southern England, Scotland, central Portugal and Piemonte in northern Italy) a survey of fuel resources, an assessment of planning, environmental and social issues, selection of conversion and other equipment, an examination of the potential for sales of electricity and waste heat and the preparation of reports, including implementing plans. - the associated dissemination of results nationally, within the whole EU and internationally. Technical Approach The project will be organised on three levels: - project co-ordination - overview and dissemination - to draw together and report on common themes identified below - site studies, which will focus on the detailed assessment of implementation studies in four regions Expected Achievements and Exploitation An implementation plan for the construction and operation of each proposed biomass-fuelled power station will be established. Sources of project finance, and the criteria for lending, will be identified. The risks inherent in the projects will be evaluated. Operating costs and revenues will be calculated. The partners will disseminate the results of this project within the member states of the European Union, to the relevant people within the energy professions and trade associations, in networks with utilities, research institutions, building professions and architects, municipalities, regional and national authorities, universities, industry and agriculture. In addition to the normal contractors' meetings of the JOULE programme, special seminars and workshops will be held to publicize the reports widely, including a major international seminar, self-funding apart from the inputs of the partners, towards the end of the project.
