4 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium Targets for 2030 – Emissions 40% cut in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels The EU level target must be shared between the ETS and what the Member States must achieve collectively in the sectors outside of the ETS. The ETS sector would have to deliver a reduction of 43% in GHG in 2030 and the non-ETS sector a reduction of 30% both compared to 2005. In order to bring about the required emissions reduction in the ETS sector, the annual factor by which the cap on the maximum permitted emissions within the ETS decreases will have to be increased from 1.74% currently to 2.2% after 2020.

5 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium This EU level target will drive continued investment in renewable energy meaning, for example, that the share of renewable energy in the electricity sector would increase from 21% today to at least 45% in 2030. Unlike in the current framework, the EU target would not be translated into national targets via EU legislation, thus leaving greater flexibility for Member States to meet their greenhouse gas reduction targets in the most cost-effective manner in accordance with their specific circumstances, energy mixes and capacities to produce renewable energy. Targets for 2030 – Renewable Energies At least a 27% share of renewable energy consumption

6 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium The Commission's analysis shows that a greenhouse gas emissions reduction target of 40% would require an increased level of energy savings of approximately 25% in 2030. The European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), which will mobilise €315 billion worth of investment over the coming years and will be crucial for Energy Union, has already financed projects (French housing stock). EFSI will help address the chronic under investment in energy efficiency. More than €100 billion needs to be invested every year to achieve the 2030 energy efficiency target. Targets for 2030 – Energy Efficiency At least 27% energy savings compared with the business-as-usual scenario

7 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium 1.Ensuring food security: 70% increase in food demand supported ensuring to ensure an adequate preservation of food production as primary use in rural areas. 2.Managing natural resources sustainability: productivity increases while ensuring sustainable resource use and alleviating stress on the environment. 3.Reducing dependence on non-renewable resources: Bio-based products and bioenergy all contribute to the sustainable growth of a green economy. 4.Mitigating and adapting to climate change: Increasing carbon sequestration in agricultural soils and sea beds, monitoring forest resources. 5.Creating permanent qualified jobs and maintaining European competitiveness: The EU's bioeconomy sectors are worth € 2 trillion in annual turnover and account for more than 22 million jobs and approximately 9% of the workforce. Key for Success: The Bioeconomy....?

8 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium EUBIA Approach to International Bioeconomy The environmental sustainability of biomass feedstock has a huge impact on the whole value chain from land to bio-products European and global biomass resources represent the raw material for a wide range of industry sectors, all of them expecting an impressing market growth with a related increase of biomass demand within 2050. Biomass is the only existing renewable carbon source able to replace fossil fuels in the production of 73,000 market products. HOWEVER... The “good” biomass consumed worldwide is related to three main sectors: Paper, Construction, Food

9 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium Biomass consumption Industry sectors 1. Primary Sectors Paper, construction, food 2. Emerging Sectors Heat & power, plastic, chemicals, biofuels industries "Avoid primary land use, focus on the valorisation of residues and abandoned lands". The Emerging Bioeconomy based on waste valorization

10 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium...Is there a sufficient amount of residues in Europe?

11 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium European Countries are estimated to produce 143 Mtoe of biomass residues available only from agriculture.

12 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium Food residues Households waste (42%) Food processing (39%), Food service/catering (14%), Retail/wholesale (5%). Over 100 million tons of food (25-28 MTOE) are estimated to be wasted annually in the EU (2014 estimation). Estimated total food waste in EU (kTOE),

13 European Biomass Industry Association BioenNW Final International Conference, 24/9/2015, Brussels, Belgium Forests represent another important source of residues: about 170-200 MTons (85MTOE) of forestry residues are available, 45-50 Mtons/year of them not yet used in Europe.
