Project description
Growing bioenergy on marginal, underutilised and contaminated lands
Marginalised, underutilised and contaminated (MUC) lands could prove useful for non-food biomass production. In this context, the EU-funded BIOPLAT-EU project will promote the market uptake of sustainable bioenergy in Europe using these lands, which do not compete with food and feed production. Firstly, the project will create a database of maps of MUC lands in Europe, as well as a public user-friendly tool to search for these lands in order to facilitate sustainability assessments. For instance, users can select a suitable crop and bioenergy pathway. The project will also develop a web-based platform that serves as a support tool for decision-making based on the findings of feasibility studies and business models formulated by the project.
