Bioenergy Europe's second video in a series of four dedicated to #bioenergy raw materials from #agriculture, both perennial energy crops and agricultural residues.

In this video we focus on the use and valorization of agricultural residues, in particular from olive oil production, such as pruning, olive stones and exhausted olive pulp.

By raising awareness of the potential of the agricultural residues value chain and with the right legislative framework, agricultural biomass can play a key role in climate change mitigation strategies.

About agrobiomass:
Because around 20% of bioenergy feedstocks come from agriculture, both specific energy crops and agricultural residues can be used to produce #heat, #electricity and #biofuels. Agricultural #biomass represents an important and sustainable energy source, although its potential remains largely untapped. Agricultural biomass is crucial for achieving Europe's long-term decarbonisation goals.
