WORK PACKAGESWP1: ManagementThe aim of this work package is to deal with project management and administration issues. WP2: Demand AnalysisThe aim of the work package is to define, characterise and analyse the specific market segments within the EU27 (and UK, NL, DE, AT, EL) heat, electricity-CHP and transport sectors, where biomass can have an important penetration. For UK, NL DE, AT and EL a detailed market segment analysis will be performed to understand the potential for bioenergy in different market segments. Following, the country specific findings will be used along with information from EUROSTAT, EUBIONET and other initiatives mentioned above to estimate potential bioenergy penetration in the EU 27 based on a more high level view of the market structure in the other countries and in the EU 27 as a whole.

WP3: Availability & supply analysisThe aim of the work package is to provide a comprehensive strategic analysis of biomass supply options and their availability in response to different demands and different sustainability criteria in a timeframe from 2010- 2030 by making a comparative inventory of existing studies, and synthesising the results in terms of economic supply estimates that are most realistic and likely given various policy and development scenarios. Supply will include existing biomass streams (including waste) and potentially new stream from non food crops and 4F crops as raw materials for energy and industrial applications. The supply options will be provided at EU27 and Member State level. DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD:
WP4: SustainabilityThe aim of this work package is to identify, define and quantify (where possible) the main sustainability standards and criteria regarding indirect land use change, air, water, soil requirements and social impacts and provide input to the Commission in the form of post- RES criteria/ indicators. The work will be based on the RES-D sustainability criteria and will aim to feed into the updating process meeting the 2012 deadlines. DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD:
WP5: Energy modellingThe aim of this work package is to use existing energy models (PRIMES & Biotrans/Admire-RREBUS) to estimate the role biomass can play in the EU energy system from 2010 to 2030 (with intermediate 2020) by bringing biomass demand and supply trends together.

WP6: Support policy makersThe aim of this work package is to inform and support policy makers across the EU ensuring, their input into the broader work within biomass futures project, but importantly helping policy makers deal with key challenges associated with the development of bioenergy solutions and the implementation of the renewable energy Directive. The aim is to deliver ongoing dialogue and engagement throughout the work, establishing a network of policy makers and providing consistent support. IEEP will intend to bring together expertise and understanding into easily digestible and usable information resources making them accessible to policy makers across Europe. DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD:
WP7: Dialogue mechanismsThe aim of this work package is to enhance the dialogue between biomass producers and users, including the biomass conversion industry, and policy-makers. This will be achieved by developing dialogue mechanisms in the form of structured interviews, targeted phone-conferences bringing together selected sets of stakeholders - inter alia farmers & energy producers, investors & policy makers - in order to have responses from wider stakeholder groups to the key questions addressed.
