Series: Energy, Environment and Resources Department .Research PaperPublication details: London : The Royal Institute of International Affairs Chatham House , 2018 Description: 97p. (pdf)ISBN: 9781784132675Subject(s): Unión Europea | Biomasa | Producción de energíaOnline resources: Acceso al documento (intranet) | Acceso al documento (internet) Review: IThis paper provides background information on the use of woody biomass for power and heat within the EU – the main global source of demand for non-traditional uses of biomass – and examines patterns of demand and supply in nine EU member states, together with the policy frameworks that support the use of biomass for energy. In 2016 (the latest year for which figures are available), the countries analysed in this paper, which have been selected to include a range of different patterns of use and sourcing of woody biomass, were nine of the 11 largest consumers of energy from solid biomass for power and heat in the EU.
