Bioenergy Market Monitoring
The project makes it possible to provide continuous monitoring for all areas of bioenergy.

Goal: to exploit the potential of bioenergy and its value chain to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; to promote dialogue between the bioenergy sector and policymakers
Topics: Renewable energies, Funding, Buildings, Legal framework, Industry, Infrastructure, Mobility, Heating transition, Generating and distributing energy
Runtime: since 2021
Our mission
The bioenergy sector is undergoing radical change. Many market players are unsure which sales markets will be relevant. This is primarily due to the regulatory framework, which is the responsibility of various federal ministries. What’s more, there are also differing views on the sectors in which the limited availability of bioenergy can make the greatest contribution to climate neutrality. There is no continuous market monitoring. It tends to be the case, to date, that the statistics on bioenergy are analysed sector-by-sector and only retrospectively. There is no overview of well-prepared industry figures for the overall market and the economic situation of the companies. Such an overview could provide a transparent information basis for policymakers.
Our approach
The project will establish a central, continuous market monitoring system for bioenergy from liquid, gaseous and solid biomass. A business climate index will be compiled annually on the basis of industry surveys in an effort to identify market trends and dynamics as well as economic developments.
Monitoring provides insights into the mechanisms and needs of companies. In addition, the impact of political measures and framework conditions can be better analysed and adjusted if necessary. The project will promote dialogue between the industry and policymakers in order to maximise the benefits of bioenergy for the system as a whole.
