Through cooperation with our members, Bioenergy Europe keeps engaging in an open dialogue with the EU Institutions. In the past month, Bioenergy Europe’s Board of Directors met with EU Commission officials from DG ENER, AGRI and CLIMA to discuss the upcoming Heating and Cooling Strategy. The Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act was also tackled in a recent meeting with DG GROW.
Finally, I had the opportunity to meet Commissioner Roswall during a stakeholders meeting focused on the Bioeconomy Strategy.
As we move forward, we are convinced that a collaborative approach is essential to ensure that bioenergy delivers on its potential in the energy transition.
