SET4BIO Renewable Fuels And Bioenergy For A Low-Carbon Europe - accelerating the implementation of the SET Plan is a H2020 project aimed to support the full execution of the Implementation Plan of SET Plan Action 8 (Bioenergy and Renewable Fuels for Sustainable Transport). Started in March 2020, the project has been carried out by a consortium of six partners and was successfully concluded in August 2023.
Over a three-and-half year life span, SET4BIO has carried out a number of activities and produced many valuable outputs and resources: several mappings of projects, industry stakeholders, platforms, funding and financing opportunities in the field of bioenergy and renewable fuels, challenges to stimulate innovation, and a set of policy recommendations at hand of policy makers. These pieces of knowledge were disseminated through different and impactful tools, such as factsheets, interactive maps, booklets, articles and papers.
Most of these outputs were presented last June during the project final event dedicated to the revamping of the SET Plan and the role of bioenergy inthere, organized by ETIP Bioenergy in the framework of the 31st European Biomass Conference and Exhibition (EUBCE).
A selection of the latest and most prominent SET4BIO project results is available below.
