Further to Directive 2009/28/EC on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources, the share of biofuels in transport should rise to a minimum of 10% in Member States by 2020. In Finland, the goal is set at 20%, and it is estimated that this can be produced entirely in domestic factories, as long as the projects already underway will be...

... logging and processing is associated with large volume of waste streams. These, include logging residues, sawdust and wood chips and chemical pulping wastes such as black liquor. As can be seen in Fig. 3, utilization of waste streams, or secondary use of wood, increased during the past 20 years, and the percentage of wood in the energy mix is increasing again, reaching 15% in ...

The role of smart energy networks to support the application of waste-to-energy technologies

  • Nov 2013
Sparsely inhabited Nordic regions, especially in rural areas, offer a great potential for renewable energy production. Waste-to-energy (W2E) technologies can play a very important role in the diversification of the energy production portfolio in the framework of a growing energy demand. In this paper, we examine the role the development of a smart energy network can play to support the employment of W2E technologies for sparsely populated rural areas. It is expected that W2E technologies combined with smart energy grids would make sustainable energy solutions viable and economically feasible, whilst supporting a transition to a sustainable energy strategy.
