The challenges of worldwide climate protection efforts can only be realised with sustainable energy supply. Biomass is the most important and versatile renewable energy source in Germany. For this reason, the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) funds a program for "Promoting projects to optimise biomass energy use" in the framework of the German Climate Initiative and further R&D projects.

The subject of the funding is the research and development of energy efficient technologies and the optimisation of processes and procedures. Feasibility studies, monitoring programs, pilot and demonstration projects are supposed to contribute substantially in the light of sustainability and climate change issues to improve the energy use of biomass.

Innovative ideas often arise in close cooperation between science, research and industry. Therefore, the BMU focuses on the benefits of strategic networking and promotes support for interdisciplinary research collaborations and the exchange of knowledge between the project partners in the context of the national climate change initiative.
