Marco europeo en materia de Clima y Energía 2030:el papel de la biomasa
1. Bioenergy within the EU 2030
Climate and Energy Framework
Nathalie Hemeleers, Policy Advisor, AEBIOM
2. EU 2030 Climate and Energy Framework
• 2030 Climate and Energy Framework – Council decision
• European Commission’s views – Energy Union

• Member States position 23 October 2014 (European Council)
- 27% RES target EU binding - BUT not nationally binding
- 40% GHG emissions reduction: ETS and non ETS sectors
- 27% reduction of energy consumption - indicative objective
• This approach must now be accompanied by a robust and reliable governance
system for reaching renewables and energy efficiency targets
An improved biomass policy will also be necessary to maximise the resource efficient use
of biomass in order to deliver robust and verifiable greenhouse gas savings and to
allow for fair competition between the various uses of biomass resources in the
construction sector, paper and pulp industries and biochemical and energy production.
This should also encompass the sustainable use of land, the sustainable management
of forests in line with the EU's forest strategy and address indirect land use effects as
with biofuels.

The Commission will propose a new Renewable Energy Package in 2016-2017. This
will include a new policy for sustainable biomass and biofuels
“A Framework Strategy for a Resilient Energy Union with a Forward-Looking Climate
Change Policy” – 25 February 2015
5 Dimensions:
-Energy security
-Internal market
-Energy efficiency
-Decarbonisation of economy
-RD&I
The Commission will propose a strategy to facilitate investment in
heating and cooling

Stakeholder consultation meeting on working document: 9
September 2015
Focus on: buildings, industry and services,
electricity and heating
AEBIOM written answer available: focus on awareness ;
Communication ; market level playing field
The H&C strategy will consist of:
- Working Document (analysis of H&C sector)
- Strategy (menu of possible pathways and instruments for further debate
rather than concrete measures and targets)
AEBIOM policy recommendations

Sustainability
• No EU legislation today = No certainty for investors & diverse requirements at
national level – Room for private and national initiatives
• EU willingness to set a new policy for biomass sustainability
• EU decision on possible new measures / legislative: 2016 (relation with 2030 EU
RES framework)
• AEBIOM to contribute to the debate

BENEFITS RISKS
Impact on forests Bioenergy developments have had no
negative impacts on EU forests
Increased extraction for bioenergy production up to
2030 could result in deterioration of forest resources
and ecosystem
GHG savings Solid and gaseous biomass is key to achieving
the 2020 renewable energy targets and the EU
long-term decarbonisation goals by 2050
A vast majority of the biomass pathways used
today provides carbon reductions in the
medium / short term and long term
Stem wood and stumps harvested only for bioenergy =
negligible GHG savings
Competition of uses Competition between energy and pulp, paper and board
industry will increase – Evaluation and monitoring are
needed
GHG calculation: same methodology for calculation (recognize Biograce II) - revised fossil fuel comparator –
revised list of default values pathways - « it is considered to be good practice for existing bioenergy installations to achieve
GHG savings of at least 70% compared to the fossil fuels comparators. »

SFM definition: Sustainable forest management means using forests and forest land in a way, and at a rate,
that maintains their biodiversity, productivity, regeneration capacity, vitality and their potential to fulfil,
now and in the future, relevant ecological, economic and social functions, at local, national, and global levels,
and that does not cause damage to other ecosystems
•Develop SFM that can be applied in different policy context regardless of the end use of biomass
Ad-hoc WG on Sustainability
•Develop good-practice guidance for the “cascade” principle DG GROW study on optimized
cascading use of wood

Study Who Objective
Forest biomass for energy: current
trends, carbon balance and
sustainable potential
Birdlife, EEB,
T&E
Clarify possibilities and implications of woody bioenergy supply for natural
environment and climate by 2020 and 2030 (published)
Potential and Implications of using
biomass for energy in the EU
Birdlife, EEB,
T&E
Analysis of how much and what kind of biomass could be produced and used in
the EU for energy in a sustainable way by 2020 and 2030 (launch postponed)
Pitfalls and potentials. The role of
bioenergy in the EU climate and
energy policy post 2020
Birdlife,
WWF,
Greenpeace,
etc…
Four safeguards: 1- the introduction of a cap to limit the use of biomass, 2- the
strengthening of the principle of cascading use of biomass, 3- a correct carbon
accounting for biomass and finally 4- the introduction of comprehensive binding
sustainability criteria (published).
