Offer Description

The BioAssess Project, funded by Sustainable Energy Authority Ireland and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, aims to provide a novel framework which assesses the environmental, economic and social impacts of the use of biomass for bioenergy and in the bioeconomy in Ireland. The framework will identify any unintended consequences of the use of biomass in different sectors and will inform industry, local authorities and policymakers on how to develop schemes and policies for the sustainable use of biomass. BioAssess will engage with key stakeholders through the Industry Advisory panel including members from industry (energy and farming), local authorities and policymakers, and through project workshops (e.g. farmers, foresters, bioenergy processors, bioeconomy companies etc.) to ensure uptake of the BioAssess framework. BioAssess is led by University College Dublin, with collaborators University of Galway and Munster Technological University.
