The Digest’s 2025 Multi-Slide Guide to Innovations in Sustainable Biomass Supply and Bio-hubs

The IEA Bioenergy Task on Sustainable Biomass Supply advances sustainable, low-carbon bioenergy systems by focusing on techno-economic strategies within existing supply chains. Key innovations include developing techno-economic models for “bio-hubs” to mitigate site volume variability and meet market needs, and researching integrated biomass residue management. A particularly newsworthy aspect is the exploration of biomass as a bioproduct for wildfire resilience, supporting local energy supply and risk mitigation in remote communities.
