Summary
Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:
- Build a portfolio of complete value chains for advanced biofuels and renewable fuels of non-biological origin.
- De-risk technology, boost the scale-up of advanced biofuels and non-biological origin renewable fuels.
- Respond to short and medium term needs for renewable fuels in energy and transport.
- Improve sustainability and security of the value chains.
Detailed Call Description
Demonstrating such complete value chains will contribute to increase the competitiveness of their technologies and foster their commercialization to allow high penetration of advanced biofuels and renewable fuels of non-biological origin in the energy and transport energy system, in particular for hard to electrify sectors.
Proposals should aim at improved performance in terms of increasing the efficiency and sustainability and reducing the cost, while evidencing the value creation along the value chain steps.
Proposals should demonstrate innovative and cost effective sustainable value chains for advanced biofuels or synthetic renewable fuels of non-biological origin (other than for hydrogen as a final product), over the entire cycle from feedstock to end use. Any sustainable biomass feedstock including residues and wastes, or biogenic CO2 or industrial CO2 and renewable hydrogen, as well as input energy to the conversion should be addressed.
