Bringing Value to AgroBiomass is supported from a number of other,
mainly EU-funded, projects that focus on various aspects of a transition to a greener, bio-based economy.
The supporting projects are (in alphabetical order): AgroFossilFree, BEcoop, BioMass Canada, Biogas Go Global, GRACE, Go-Grass, MUSIC. You can find further information on each project in the paragraphs below and in their websites.
The AgroBioHeat consortium would like to thank the respective coordinators, dissemination leaders and other consortium partners of these projects for their collaboration and support!
AgroFossilFree paves the way to EU agriculture de-fossilisation by diminishing fossil energy dependence while maintaining end product yield and quality and reducing environmental impact. To achieve this goal 5 specific objectives have been identified
The project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement ID 101000496.

Biogas Go Global provides a platform for the accelerated growth of the biogas industry in the United States and other partner countries by establishing collaboration between industry, academia and the private sector. The goal of Biogas Go Global is to increase the biogas sector through partnerships between Danish and partner country stakeholders.
This project has received funding from The Danish Industry Foundation.

BioMass Canada mobilizes Canada’s agricultural sector to commoditize biomass for bioenergy and bioproducts, to benefit agricultural producers in all regions of Canada, while mitigating and adapting to a changing climate.
This cluster is focussed on de-risking and commoditizing agricultural biomass through the use of complete value chains for rural and remote applications, using emerging technologies that improve the profitability of production, pre-processing, handling and storage.

GRACE (GRowing Advanced industrial Crops on marginal lands for biorEfineries) is a 15 m€ BBI demonstration project which aims at optimizing various miscanthus and hemp value chains. The goals of the project are to produce sustainable products with a strong market potential, to guarantee a reliable and affordable supply of sustainably produced biomass, and to better link biomass producers with the processing industry. In order to avoid competition with food and feed crops, miscanthus and hemp are cultivated on areas that have been polluted for example by heavy metals, or are unattractive for food production due to lower yields.
This project has received
funding from the Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking (BBI JU) under
the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme
under grant agreement No 745012.

GO-GRASS will develop a set of small-scale bio-based solutions to unlock the overlooked potential of grassland across Europe and create new business opportunities for rural areas.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement N°862674.

It's biomass... but denser and easier to use. Intermediate Bioenergy Carriers (IBCs) are formed when biomass is processed to energetically denser, storable and transportable intermediary products analogous to coal, oil and gaseous fossil energy carriers. They can be used directly for heat or power generation or further refined to final bioenergy or bio-based products. IBCs contribute to energy security, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels in Europe.
The MUSIC project will support market uptake of three types of IBCs by developing feedstock mobilisation strategies, improved cost-effective logistics and trade centres. The investigated IBCs include pyrolysis oil, torrefied biomass and microbial oil.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement No 857806.
